High-crystallinity poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) thin films were prepared by aging the precursor solutions, prepared using a good solvent, chloroform, at low temperatures prior to spin-casting. Lower solution temperatures significantly improved the molecular ordering in the spin-cast P3HT films and, therefore, the electrical properties of field-effect transistors prepared using these films. Solution cooling enhanced the electrical properties by shifting the P3HT configuration equilibrium away from random coils and toward more ordered aggregates. At room temperature, the P3HT molecules were completely solvated in chloroform and adopted a random coil conformation. Upon cooling, however, the chloroform poorly solvated the P3HT molecules, favoring the formation of ordered P3HT aggregates, which then yielded more highly crystalline molecular ordering in the P3HT thin films produced from the solution.

PM3 semiempirical calculations ions have performed on the three aromatic heterocyclic polymers. The dipole moment (${\mu}$7), static 1st-orders(${\alpha}$), 2nd-order (${\beta}$), and 3rd-order polarizabilities(${\gamma}$) were investigated to study the nonlinear optical properties of the polythiophene, polyfuran, and polypyrrole systems. As a function of n, ${\alpha}$ and ${\gamma}$ increases much more rapidly for the polythiophene systems than for the polyfuran and Polypyrrole systems due to the pi-electron delocalization.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop conducting polymer(CP) composite electrode for supercapacitor. Supercapactior cell of CP composite electrode with 1M LiClO$_4$/PC brings out good capacitor performance below 4V. The radius of semicircle of CP composite cell with PAn composite electrode adding 15Wt% SP270(PAnS15) and PT composite electrode adding 50%wt% SP270(PTS50) was absolutely small. The total resistance of supercapacitor cell mainly depended on internal resistance of the electrode. The discharge capacitance of supercapacitor cell with PTS50(+)/PAnS15(-) in 1st and 20th cycles was 38F/g and 28F/g at current density of 1mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively.

Electrochemical capacitor(supercapacitor) cell of CP composite electrode with 1M LiClO$_4$PC bring out good capacitor performance below 4V. The radius of semicircle of CP composite cell with PAn composite electrode adding l5wt%SP270(PAnS15) and PT composite electrode adding 50wt%SP270 (PTS50) was absolutely small. The total resistance of supercapacitor cell mainly depended on internal resistance of the electrode. The discharge capacitance of supercapacitor cell with PTS50(+)/PAnS15(-) in 1st and 20th cycles was 38F/g and 28F/g at current density of 1mA/cm$^2$. Supercapacitor cell with PTS50(+)/PAnS15(-) showed good capacitance and stability with cycling.

Conductive polymers are polymers that conduct electricity like metal conductors. Unlike typical organic polymers, they are polymers that have the electrical, magnetic, and optical properties of metals or semiconductors. For Example, these conductive polymers include Polypyrrole (PPy), Polyaniline (PANI), and Polythiophene (PT). On the other hand, Insulating polymers do not conduct electricity well while providing insulation, which is the opposite of conductivity. With the exception of conductive polymers, most polymers are non-conductors. Insulating polymers include polyimide (PI), polystyrene (PS), and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVOH, PVA, or PVAl). Although many different polymers exist, we have simply illustrated the properties and recent developments of conductive and insulating polymers, which have opposite properties.

Light-weight conductive polymer composites were prepared by incorporating polyheterocycles such as polypyrrole and polythiophene into pores of a highly porous cross-linked polystyrene, host polymer, to form a conductive network. The highly hydrophobic and porous host polymer was synthesized by concentrated emulsion polymerization method. Polypyrrole-based composites, prepared by employing ferric chloride-methanol system, showed a conductivity as high as 0.82 S/cm. Conductivity of polythiophene-based composites, prepared from ferric chloride-acetonitrile system, was 6.05 S/cm. Conductivity of compositivity was influenced by the initial molar ratio of oxidant to monomer as well. SEM micrographs of the composites showed that conducting polymer coated uniformly the inside wall of the porous host polymer. Shielding effectiveness of the polypyrrole-based composites and of the polythiophene-based composites were 15.2 dB and 22.5 dB at 2.0 GHz, respectively. In the temperature range from 20 to 300K, a polypyrrole impregnated composite exhibited seimiconducting behavior and followed the variable range hopping(VRH) model for charge transport.
