Polyacetylene, (CH) sub x:n-Type and p-Type Doping and Compensation.

摘要

A series of experiments are reported which demonstrate that donors or acceptors can dope polyacetylene to n-type or p-type respectively, and that the two kinds of dopants can compensate one another. The formation of a rectifying p-n junction is demonstrated. The results suggest the possibility of utilizing doped polyacetylene in a variety of potential semiconductor device applicatons. (Author)
