Abstract
The first solid‐state heterojunction device involving two conducting organic polymers has been fabricated from polyacetylene, (CH)x and p‐doped poly(N‐methylpyrrole), (PNP). Its electronic properties can be modified by chemically partly reducing or partly oxidizing the PNP. The junction has been characterized by J‐V studies and by preliminary photovoltaic measurements.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
