Popis: The nature of ultrafast energy dissipation in poly(n-hexylsilyne), a prototypical σ-delocalized alkylsilicon-network polymer is reported. This disordered, silicon-backbone material exhibits strong near-UV to visible band-edge absorption and a high quantum yield of visible emission. The time evolution of the emission band is studied over four decades of time using time-resolved luminescence as a probe. The data indicate that while there is an «intrinsic» Stokes shift after photoexcitation due to kinetic-energy relaxation, (
