Semiconducting polymers/π-conjugated polymers are semiconducting electro-plastics with electrical conductivity in the range of somewhere from 10–1 2 to 100 (ohm cm)-1.
The first generation of semiconducting polymer was polyacetylene, which was discovered in the 1970s.
Semiconducting polymers are of great interest for applications in plastic displays, transistors, photodiodes, plastic fuel cells, solar cells, batteries, light-emitting printable plastic inks, and chemical and biological sensors.
A polymer light-emitting diode [LED] is a good example to illustrate the nice features of semiconducting polymers as a multidisciplinary instructional vehicle, which is shown in ...
