The dynamics of a polaron in polyacetylene (PA) in an electric field is studied in detail. It is shown that the dependence of polaron velocity on the applied field is determined by the vibrational spectrum of PA. A polaron moving in an electric field with a supersonic velocity generates monochromatic oscillations of the optical branch of the PA vibrational spectrum. The polaron velocity is equal to...
