Abstract
Assuming either classical electrodynamics or the quantum mechanical tight-binding of an electron to a nonlinear lattice with exponentially repulsive potential interactions we show how in both cases electron trapping can be mediated by solitons thus forming similar robust bound states (solectrons).
