Synthesis and p-doping of glycol containing conjugated polymers
In the construct of HORATES, Chalmers University of Technology is the main body to investigate p-doping of polymeric organic semiconductors (Figure 1). One class of materials studied in HORATES are polymers, or plastics. When these polymers have a specific structure of alternating double and single bonds, the charges will be able to move along the… Read More »Synthesis and p-doping of glycol containing conjugated polymers
