Effects of the Gaussian energy dispersion on the statistics of polarons and bipolarons in conducting polymers.
We discuss the interpretation of usually broad oxidation peaks observed in electronically conducting polymers, in terms of the statistical distributions functions of polarons and bipolarons. The analysis is based on examining the chemical capacitance, that relates the change of concentration to a modification of the chemical potential of a given species, for different statistical models. We fir...
متن کاملSuperconducting Polarons and Bipolarons
The seminal work by Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer (BCS) extended further by Eliashberg to the intermediate coupling regime solved one of the major scientific problems of Condensed Matter Physics in the last century. The BCS theory provides qualitative and in many cases quantitative descriptions of low-temperature superconducting metals and their alloys, and some novel high-temperature supercon...
متن کاملCharge Transport in Conducting Polymers: Polyacetylene Nanofibres
The preparation of individual polyacetylene nanofibres has allowed a more probing investigation of the properties of polyacetylene. A significant discovery is that at low temperatures, polyacetylene nanofibres show temperature-independent Zener-type tunnelling, that we suggest is tunnelling of the conjugated-bond pattern along single polyacetylene chains. At higher temperatures, the current sho...
متن کاملPolarons and bipolarons in strongly interacting electron-phonon systems.
The Holstein Hubbard and Holstein t–J models are studied for a wide range of phonon frequencies, electron–electron and electron–phonon interaction strengths on finite lattices with up to ten sites by means of direct Lanczos diagonalization. Previously the necessary truncation of the phononic Hilbert space caused serious limitations to either very small systems (four or even two sites) or to wea...
متن کاملCharge-transport model for conducting polymers.
The growing technological importance of conducting polymers makes the fundamental understanding of their charge transport extremely important for materials and process design. Various hopping and mobility edge transport mechanisms have been proposed, but their experimental verification is limited to poor conductors. Now that advanced organic and polymer semiconductors have shown high conductivi...
