Conducting polymers doped

Thus, as summarized in Fig. II-1, doping is a common feature of conducting polymers doping leads to a remarkably wide range of electronic phenomena. 

Properties of representative conducting polymers. Doped conjugated polymers have generated substantial interest in view of possible applications such as lightweight batteries, antistatic equipment, and microelectronics to speculative concepts such as molecular electronic devices.37-38 These polymers include doped polyacetylene, polyaniline, polypyrrole, and other polyheterocycles (Figure 5). While the conduction mechanism of metals and inorganic semiconductors is well understood and utilized in microelectronics, this is not true to the same...

The carotenes and other conjugated linear polyenes have been touted as "molecular wires" or as "molecular antennas" [21], and certainly will provide fast electronic access to single molecules. These polyenes are, unfortunately, very susceptible to air oxidation (as is the simplest conducting polymer, doped polyacetylene).

The incorporation of electrically conductive polymers (doped conjugated polymers) into non-conductive polymers to impart electrical conductivity has been demonstrated in a number of examples. Conjugated polymers shown below are generally non-conductive (semiconductive), but exhibit electrical conductivities often in excess of 1 S/cm with acid dopants, such as mineral acids (e.g., HCl, H2SO4), iodine, or organic acids such as dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid. 

The self-healing effect provided by dopant ions has been observed in the woric of Dominis etal (2003) for emeraldine salt primers loaded with different eorrosion inhibitors. Also, in the work of Kinlen et al (2002), PANi formulations with phosphonic acid derivatives as dopant anions showed better corrosion protection performances than formulations with sulfonic acids and derivatives. Kendig et al (2003) also reported the development of smart coatings based on conducting polymers doped with different corrosion inhibitors, showing that the release of inhibitors was triggered by the electrochemical activity at defects. In the work of Paliwoda-Porebska et al (2005, 2006) the cathodic delamination rate in iron coated with PPy doped with phosphomolybdates was fonnd to decrease in comparison with PPy doped with molybdates.
