A theoretical approach to the characterization of the transport and optical properties of organic oligomer and polymer thin films is proposed. The approach—based on a correlated treatment of interchain interactions—is applied to two prototypical oligomeric materials, α‐sexithienyl and α‐α′‐bisdithieno‐ [3,2‐b:2′,3′‐d]thiophene (see Figure).
