Metal-insulator transition in highly conducting oriented polymers
We suggest that highly conducting oriented polymers with a fibril structure can be modeled by a regular lattice of disordered metallic wires with a random first-neighbor interwire coupling which mimics the cross-links between fibrils. We show that such a model can be described by a non-linear sigma model. Within a one-loop self-consistent approximation, we determine the position of the metal-in...
متن کاملOn the Origin of Transport Non-Universality and Piezoresistivity in Segregated Conductor-Insulator Composites and Application to Thick-Film Resistors
In this thesis we address the description of electrical transport properties of disordered conductor-insulator composites, mostly by numerical Monte Carlo simulations and analytical study of realistic tunnelling-percolation models. Such composites are basically constituted by conducting particles dispersed in an insulating matrix and present a conductor-insulator phase transition, with critical...
متن کاملTunneling conductivity in composites of attractive colloids.
In conductor-insulator nanocomposites in which conducting fillers are dispersed in an insulating matrix, the electrical connectedness is established by inter-particle tunneling or hopping processes. These systems are intrinsically non-percolative and a coherent description of the functional dependence of the conductivity σ on the filler properties, and in particular of the conductor-insulator t...
متن کاملMacroscopic disorder and the metal–insulator transition in conducting polymers
We describe a simple model for treating the frequency-dependent conductivity σe(ω) and dielectric function Re e(ω) of a quasi-one-dimensional conducting polymer. The polymer is modelled as a composite medium consisting of spherical regions of ordered polymer, randomly distributed in a much more disordered polymer host. Within each spherical region, the polymer chains are highly oriented, but th...
متن کاملPhase diagram of the layered oxide SnO: GW and electron-phonon studies
First-principles calculations are performed to study the electronic properties and the electron-phonon interactions of the layered oxide semiconductor SnO. In addition to the high hole mobility that makes SnO a promising material in electronics, it has recently been reported that the semimetallic phase under pressure is superconducting. The superconducting Tc curve exhibits a dome-like feature ...
