Abstract

We report the results of the initial investigation of the application of ion implantation for the “doping” of the electroactive polymers, (SN)x and (CH)x. Increases in conductivity have been measured for some (CH)x samples after being implanted. Evidence for the formation of a discrete chemical species has been observed in the case of (CH)x implanted with Br+ ions. Advantages and drawbacks associated with this technique are discussed.
