Course description
Course description
In the lecture, the structure and properties of conducting polymer, which is polymer with electrical activity, is introduced. The electronic excitation, such as soliton, polaron, and bipolaron, and their localization are studied theoretically. The mechanisms of electric conduction is also explained. Further, some applications, LED, FET, and solar panel, are introduced.
Expected Learning
Electronic structure and origin of conduction of conducting polymer are learned.
