High current density and drift velocity in templated conducting polymers
journal contribution
posted on 2007-12-01, 00:00 authored by B Winther-Jensen, Maria ForsythMaria Forsyth, K West, J Andreasen, G Wallace, D MacFarlaneConducting polymers prepared by a templated vapour phase polymerisation process involving solid phase transition metal complexes are found to produce polymers with charge carriers that exhibit maximum drift velocity in the range of 1 m/s. This super-mobility seems to be related to a high degree of ordering in the materials as evidenced by the X-ray diffraction data. This may result from a templated polymerisation process. The high mobility manifests itself as a capacity to sustain very high current densities (>10000 A/cm2); such high current densities are of importance in thin film conductor applications.
