High Intrachain Hole Mobility on Molecular Wires of Ladder-Type Poly(p-Phenylenes)
Abstract
We have studied the high-frequency (34 GHz) mobility of positive charge carriers on isolated ladder-type polymer chains in dilute solution. We find that the high-frequency mobility is limited by the chain ends on chains as long as 35 monomers. The intrachain motion of charge carriers can be described by one-dimensional diffusion between infinitely high reflecting barriers, representing the chain ends. Our data indicate that the intrachain mobility for ladder-type polymer chains is close to 600 cm(2)/V s. With this high mobility the ladder-type polymer is a promising candidate for future use as an interconnecting wire in molecular electronics.

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.
