Figure VI-5 Optical constants of samples (A-F) of PPy-PF. The top plot shows the real part of the optical conductivity and the bottom plot shows the real part of the dielectric constant. The insets show the low-frequency limits, including corresponding D.C. conductivities (data points in top plot). (Taken from ref. 268)...

At the end of the 80s, the first reports of carriers with a polaronic nature were measured with photo-induced absorption, optical conductivity and infrared reflexivity in LaCu04+x and NdCu04 y [46,47]. The advocate idea was that with the assistance of absorbed light, polarons gain the ability to hop from one localized site to another. The origin of the mid-infra red peak oscillations that register on these experiments was linked to polarons. This picture was supported by related theoretical studies of polarons and bipolarons [48]. It is important to emphasize that these carriers were successfully modeled by Holstein-Hubbard and Holstein t — J... 

The present state of the synthesis of poly(naphthalenecarboximides) and poly(perylenecarboximides) containing six-memhered imide rings in the hackhones is reviewed. Recent advances in synthetic approaches provide access to polymers exhibiting high thermal stability and chemical resistance, optical conductivity, and electrographic properties. The resulting polymers are high molecular-mass, soluble products that are easily processed by traditional methods. 

This differs qualitatively from a conductivity increasing with decreasing temperature for uninterrupted strands. Similarly, it was shown (120, 342) that the specific heat and magnetic susceptibility for the interrupted strands can differ greatly both in magnitude and temperature dependence from that expected for continuous strands. The predicted optical conductivity and dielectric constant for the interrupted strand model (120,173,344) is more complicated than that for the continuous strands. 

The quantitative difference between the Op and t estimated from IR and microwave transport measurements may be a reflection of the inhomogendty of the percolating network [105]. From the discussion of the optical conductivity and dielectric functions, a distribution of scattering times for the conduction electrons is likely involved in the transport. Therefore, at the lowest frequencies, the carriers that are the most delocalized (with the longest scattering times, t 10 s) may dominate the transport, fip appears smaller because a smaller fraction of the charge carriers have such a long mean free time (t 10 s). 

The diameters for the liquid are plotted in Fig. 4.14 as a function of density along the liquid-vapor coexistence curve. With decreasing density (increasing temperature) the effective hard-sphere diameter reaches a minimum at about 11 g cm . Recall that these are just the conditions at which the optical conductivity and Knight shift indicate the onset of the loss of metallic properties.

Ion implantation is a technique that involves the introduction of ionized atoms with high energies into the surfaces of metals, ceramics, semiconductors and polymers in order to modify their surface properties. Due to the high energies of the ions practically any element can be implanted in a near-surface substrate layer, and limited solubilities are not a problem. New compounds and alloys can be formed, leading to changes in the properties of a surface that can be divided arbitrarily into chemical (e.g., etchability and corrosion), physical (e.g.. optical, conductivity and wettability), and mechanical (e.g.. hardness, wear and strength), properties. 

Here the subscript V stand for per wavenumber . L, the spectral radiance, is a property of the radiation source, Gy the spectral optical conductance and Av the bandwidth of the instrument (in wavenumber units), r is the overall transmission factor of the entire instrument.
