Abstract(s)

Poly(phenylene vinylene) (PPV) grown via the precursor route, deposited on top of heavily doped n-type silicon, was studied using electrical measurement techniques. The results are compared to PPV grown via deposition of soluble derivative (MEH-PPV). The two types are very similar. They have comparable free carrier densities and both show minority-carrier effects. The activation energy found via the loss tangent is 0.13 eV. The effect of exposure to oxygen is visible in the capacitance and the current.
