Abstract

The complex dielectric constant ε* (ε* = ε′-iε″) of conducting polymers (polyaniline and poly (3-alkyl thiophene)) is studied over a frequency range spanning from 130 MHz to 20 GHz. The effects of structural parameters (counter-anion size, Molar Mass, length of the alkyl chain on the substituted Monomer) on electrical properties dc and ε* values) have been investigated.
