Fullerene‐Based Conducting Polymers: Fullerene‐Based Conducting Polymers: n ‐Dopable Materials for Charge Storage Application (Adv. Energy Mater. 40/2020)

Charge-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...

Solitonic States in Organic Conducting Polymers

In a typical solitonic distribution, the soliton density is distributed over the entire moleculeand the present work shows how its density can be decomposed into solitonic and antisolitoniccomponents. It is found that there exists a unique electron as soliton over the anionicnanoconductor, while there are many other solitons and antisolitons. The solitonic states are furtherdecomposed to the ca...

Conducting Polymers

In general, conducting polymers include electronically conducting polymers and ionically conducting polymers. Ionically conducting polymers are usually called polymer electrolytes. Electronically conducting polymers can also include conjugated conducting polymers and the insulating polymers blending with conducting materials. In this chapter, the conducting polymers are limited to conjugated co...
