Title: Photomodulation spectroscopy of photocarrier dynamics, electronic defects and morphology of conducting polymers

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6718567· OSTI ID:6718567

A variety of techniques were used: CW photomodulation, photomodulation in femtosecond and picosecond time ranges, CW resonant Raman scattering, transient photoinduced Raman scattering, electro-absorption, degenerate four-wave mixing, spin dependent photomodulation, and absorption detected magnetic resonance. The following conducting polymers were studied: polyacetylene, polythiophene, polydiacetylene 4-BCMU, polydiethynylsilanes, polysilane embedded in a-Si:H matrix, and fullerenes.
