Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to conductive polymer materials, and to conductive polymer materials having organic ions, a dopant and solvated free electrons. This invention also relates to conductive polymer materials used in microelectronics, optoelectronics and biomedicine. 2. Description of Related Art Electrical conductors play fundamental roles in many aspects of modern technology. Technological advances in computers relies upon conductors that have low resistance. The energy required to move electrical current through a conductor is related to the resistance. To maintain operating temperatures, resistive energy losses, including heat, must be dissipated by devices containing conductors. To minimize the energy required and the energy dissipation necessary, it is desirable to provide conductors having very high conductivity and low resistance. Because many applications occur at temperatures near room temperature, it is especiall...
