Heeger at the University of California at Santa Barbara, USA  Professor Alan G. MacDiarmid at the University of Pennsylvania, USA and  Professor Hideki Shirakawa at the University of Tsukuba, Japan rewarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for 2000 “for the discovery and development of electrically conductive polymers”. Conjugated polymers are organic macromolecules that are characterized by a backbone chain of alternating double- and single-bonds. Their overlapping p-orbitals create a system of delocalised π-electrons, which can result in interesting and useful optical and electronic properties. CuuDuongThanCong.com https://fb.com/tailieudientucntt 63 Conductivity of conductive polymers compared to those of other materials, from quartz (insulator) to copper (conductor). Polymers may also have conductivities corresponding to those of semiconductors. CuuDuongThanCong.com https://fb.com/tailieudientucntt 64 CuuDuongThanCong.com https://fb.com/tailieudientucntt Chemical structures of some conductive polymers. From top left clockwise: polyacetylene; polyphenylene vinylene; polypyrrole (X = NH) and polythiophene (X = S); and polyaniline (X = NH/N) and polyphenylene sulfide (X = S). A key property of a conductive polymer is the presence of conjugated double bonds along the backbone of the polymer. In conjugation, the bonds between the carbon atoms are alternately single and double. The presence of C5 makes it impossible for the π electrons of the C6-C7 pi bond to join the conjugated system on the first four carbons. CuuDuongThanCong.com https://fb.com/tailieudientucntt 66 CuuDuongThanCong.com https://fb.com/tailieudientucntt 67 Conjugation is not enough to make the polymer material conductive. In addition – and this is what the dopant does – charge carriers in the form of extra electrons or ”holes” have to be injected into the material. The “doped” form of polyacetylene had a conductivity of 105 Siemens per meter, which was higher than that of any previously known polymer. As a comparison, Teflon has a conductivity of 10–16 S.m–1and silver and copper 108 S.m–1. CuuDuongThanCong.com https://fb.com/tailieudientucntt 68 • The halogen doping that transforms polyacetylene to a good conductor of electricity is oxidation (or p-doping). • Reductive doping (called n-doping) is also possible using, e.g., an alkali metal. The doped polymer is thus a salt. However, it is not the counter ions, I3 – or Na+, but the charges on the polymer that are the mobile charge carriers.

The higher the dielectric strength of a material the better its quality as an insulator.  Electrical breakdown or dielectric breakdown is when current flows through an electrical insulator when the voltage applied across it exceeds the breakdown voltage. This results in the insulator becoming electrically conductive.
