Electronic Structure and Transport Properties of Semi-Conducting Polymers.

Abstract

The aim of this project initially was to develop accurate non-parametric methods for determining the energy band structure of semi-conducting polymers and then to incorporate within the same model a method to determine the electron levels due to impurity atoms used as replacements for the side groups about the polymer back bone. Secondly, we were to study the energy structure of several polymers with and without impurity side groups. These tasks have been successfully accomplished. (Author)
