Conjugated polymers featuring extended p-electron delocalization exhibit properties akin to processable organic "metals" when doped and function as semiconducting materials in their neutral, undoped state. Numerous undoped polymers demonstrate strong photoluminescence (PL) within the visible and ...
Conducting polymers such as polyaniline, polythiophene and polyfluorenes are now much in the spotlight for their applications in organic electronics and optoelectronics. Such materials are used, for example, in making organic thin-film transistors and light-emitting diodes. Here, we present a ...
