Cis-polyacetylene films have been synthetized and doped with iodine and antimony penta fluoride, using usual chemical techniques. Doping, leads, after saturation, to conductivity values of about 120 and 25 (Ω cm) -1 at room temperature, respectively for I2 and SbF 5 dopants. The E.S.R. of cis- and trans-, non-doped and doped (CH)x films has been studied. A qualitative analysis of the results allows a better understanding of the electronic properties of these extremely non homogeneous and highly conductive doped polymeric materials
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
