In this paper, the authors investigate the electronic structure and the static longitudinal polarizability of regular finite and infinite chains of polythiophene at the ab initio Hartree-Fock level. The effects of the inclusion of polarization functions in the basis set and the influence of introducing a torsional twist between adjacent rings are considered.
