Nanoscale structure-property relationships in conjugated polymers: Implications for present and future device applications
The most prevalent molecular level structures and structure-property relationships for three basic classes of conjugated polymers are summarized. This discussion encompasses linear unsubstituted conducting polymers and those containing linear side-chain and branched side-chain substituents. The impact of these structural attributes on charge transport and photophysics is emphasized. (C) 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 41: 2630-2648, 2003
