Semiconducting and Metallic Polymers: The Fourth Generation of Polymeric Materials
Abstract
When asked to explain the importance of the discovery of conducting polymers, I offer two basic answers: They did not (could not?) exist, and they offer a unique combination of properties not available from any other known materials. The first expresses an intellectual challenge; the second expresses a promise for utility in a wide variety of applications. This Nobel Lecture, presented in Stockholm on December 8, 2000, summarizes the discovery and development of the field of semiconducting and metallic polymers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
