Electrical Conduction of Iodine Doped Poly(9-vinylecarbazole) Films

DC electrical conduction of iodine doped Poly (9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) films was studied at various dopant concentrations and film thicknesses. The current-electric field dependence indicated that the electrical conduction is governed by Schottky mechanism. The conduction in these films increases as the temperature increases with a thermal activation energy ~0.47 eV.
