Abstract

Engineering general Humanities and Social Sciences multidisciplinary Research Article - Chemistry Science
The electrical conductivity measurements of selenophene-thiophene copolymers were successfully achieved using a four-probe technique. The influence of the polymerization solution, the applied polymerization potential and the monomer feed ratio on the electrical conductivity was investigated. The conductivity of obtained films generally increased with increasing temperature, implying more electrons might acquire enough energy to move from the valence to the conducting band.
