Relating Chain Conformation to the Density of States and Charge Transport in Conjugated Polymers: The Role of the β-phase in Poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene)
Charge transport in π-conjugated polymers is characterized by a strong degree of disorder in both the energy of conjugated segments and the electronic coupling between adjacent sites. This disorder arises from variations in the structure and conformation of molecular units, as well as the weak inter...
