| Abstract | In this paper, we report a controlled architectural growth of ultrathin films of conducting polymers via layer-by-layer (L-b-L) self-assembly with poly(3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene), poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT-PSS), and polypyrrole (PPy) as alternating layers. A typical step of the film growth was 2.3/spl plusmn/0.1nm for every other bilayer. Linear growth of thin films has been observed by annealing each layer, while super-assembly was observed without annealing. The conductivities obtained range from 0.037S/cm at room temperature to 0.13S/cm at 120/spl deg/C. The improved conductivity may be attributed to either the increase in mobility of charged carriers due to less carrier scattering in the self-assembled layer, or the increased inter-chain hopping between two polymers due to closely packed polymer-chains. The charged carriers in the hole transport layer (HTL) increase the recombination rate of electrons and holes in the electroluminescent layer thus increasing the external quantum efficiency of the polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs). Polymer field effect transistors have been fabricated using L-b-L assembled PEDOT-PSS and PPy. Polymer field-effect transistors (PFETs) with a number of different gate lengths were used to obtain source/drain contact resistance and channel mobility. The overall mobility from the L-b-L assembled PEDOT/PPy is calculated to be 8.8/spl times/10/sup -3/cm/sup 2//Vs at the linear regime. This mobility is five times higher than the spin coated device in linear regime. The I/sub on//I/sub off/ current ratio is 210. Thus confinements of holes in L-b-L assembled conducting polymer films improve the overall performance of polymer thin film transistors. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
