The experimentally observed bond lengths are 136/144 and 137/144 pm for trans and cis isomers, respectively. Rather than the usual black powder, the polyacetylene he obtained was a shiny, silver film. On the other side of the world, . So this semiconductor can be formed by doping an intrinsic semiconductor using trivalent impurity. When doped with Iodine, polyacetylene undergoes oxidation causing electrons to be removed from the polymer, leaving "holes" in the form of positive charges that can move along the polymer chain.Doping process: A case study examines poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) based materials, which up to now have shown the most promising thermoelectric performance.

A rapid, quantitative sensor for glucose, using the flavoprotein glucose oxidase, is described and introduces a novel electroactive material, polyacetylene, as the basis for a new biosensor. Introduction It has been known for quite some time that polyenes can exhibit fairly high electrical conductivity after they have been treated with oxidizing agents."] The resulting p-type doped polyacetylene film was found by elemental analysis to have a composition corresponding to [CH(AsF 4) 0.077 ] x, and a room temperature electrical conductivity of 553 ohm-1 . These electrochemical reactions are reversible i.e. Abstract The electrical conductivity of conducting polymers results from mobile charge carriers introduced into the -electron system through doping 1,2. [Note that these bond lengths differ from that . Furthermore, unlike the conjugation length models, our derived P(hi is a single peak distribution, and the existence of chains with very Then the electrical conductivity is investigated and a model proposed of dopant action along the polymer chains. iodine-doped polyacetylene (sample temperature was 77 K). It has two isomers, the trans and cis forms (see Fig. These results matched well with those values obtained by UPS, as shown in Figure 3c, which further demonstrated the p- to n-type switching of DPPTTT by FeCl 3 doping. Raman spectra of Li-doped cis or trans films show special features characteristic of short trans segments which remain undoped. 16. Therefore, the polymer fibrils fill only about one-third of the total . the obtained thermal conductivity of oxidized PA nanofibers varies in . These early works on polyacetylene have stimulated research interest in utilizing conductive polymers for end-user applications. This treatment of polyacetylene with halides was collectively referred to as "chemical doping" [ 22 ]. anodes. derived data on trans polyacetylene doped with 12.5% at. their collaborative work on conducting polyacetylene beginning in the mid-to-late 1970s (2). Poly (p-phenylene vinylene) ( PPV, or polyphenylene vinylene) is a conducting polymer of the rigid-rod polymer family. The band structure and electronic properties of pure and heavily doped polyacetylene (both as grown and stretch oriented) have been investigated by a combination of . Cathodic reduction returns the structures back to a less or nonconducting condition. Conjugated organic polymers are a class of organic semiconducting materials that exhibit enhanced electronic conductivity (quasi-metallic in some cases) in their oxidized (p -doped) or reduced (n-doped) state (3). b below). These highly conductive forms of polyacetylene were achieved via oxidation or reduction of the neutral polymer and such redox modified conjugated polymers are often referred to as doped materials. (CH)x films can be doped chemically (19-21) or electrochemically (22) at room tempera . (CH)x films can be doped chemically (19-21) or electrochemically (22) at room tempera . This conductivity increase is obtained via doping with elec tron acceptors, such as 12 or AsFs' or electron donors, polyacetylene are equivalent and therefore the two forms are easily interconvertible into each other without energy barrier. 1. Flexible, golden, freestanding films of having conductivities up to 10 3 1 cm 1 are readily obtained. Polyacetylene Polyacetylene upon doping with halogens exhibit conductivity upto 10 5 S/cm. The relationship between the DC conductivity and temperature for highly and moderately doped polyacetylene samples has been investigated by Roth et al. We have found also that the disorder in frans-polyacetylene can be described as a distribution P(k) of a dimensionless effective coupling parameter X. A marked change in the experimental G(w) is found on doping. p-type doping together with compensation indicates the possibility of utilizing doped polyacetylene in a variety of potential semiconductor device applications. 6-doped po lymers, the characteristic temperature dependence has been shown to correlate with the formation of dopant aggregates. The data indicate three important concentration regimes; the dilute limit (y<0.001), the transitional region (0 . This was the method used to prepare a composite of poly acetylene and polypyrrole [150,151] A sandwichlike composite with layers of polypyrrole adhered to polyacetylene was obtained using undoped polyacetylene electrodes. Each hydrogen atom can be replaced by a functional group.
