Abstract

A semiconducting polymer formed from an insulator polymer and an ionic liquid is disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the semiconducting polymer may be formed from a homogenous blend of two or more insulator polymers and two or more ionic liquids. The homogenous mixture of non-conducting polymers and ionic liquid may be formed as a film of semiconducting polymer with a controllable thickness. The semiconducting polymer may be used in a multitude of different applications, including, but not limited to, storage devices.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13 / 399,460, filed Feb. 17, 2012, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 444,704, filed Feb. 19, 2011, the entireties of which is incorporated herein.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]This invention is directed generally to conducting organic materials, and more particularly to semiconducting organic materials.BACKGROUND[0003]Semiconductors have long been formed from silicon. Silicon based semiconductors are limited by complex manufacturing processes needed to create the semiconductors, lack of flexibility and high cost. Thus, a need exists for an improved semiconductor.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0004]A semiconducting material formed from one or more insulator polymers and one or more ionic liquids is disclosed. The semiconducting material may be synthesized by doping one or more of the insulator polymers with one or more ionic liquids. The semico...
