Abstract
The dressing effect due to the quantum nature of phonons may cause the creation of bound states of several vibrons in the molecular chain. T he possibility of creating soliton states of this type is discussed fo r the simple Frohlich one-dimensional model. The regions of the system parameter space where different mechanisms dominate the behaviour of such entities are characterized.
