Anisotropic polaron motion in conducting polymers studied by muon spin relaxation

Muon spin relaxation has been used to study the anisotropic motion of muon-generated negative polarons in polyaniline and polypyridine. Fast on-chain diffusion is found to become limited by 10 meV phenylene librations above about 150 K in polyaniline, whereas the rapid on-chain diffusion is maintain...

description Muon spin relaxation has been used to study the anisotropic motion of muon-generated negative polarons in polyaniline and polypyridine. Fast on-chain diffusion is found to become limited by 10 meV phenylene librations above about 150 K in polyaniline, whereas the rapid on-chain diffusion is maintained to much higher temperatures in polypyridine due to its more rigid structure.
