Caracterização de polímeros unidimensionais (Poliacetileno, Poliazina e Poliazoeteno) através de cálculos espectroscópicos e transporte eletrônico

Abstract

In this work is presented a theoretical investigation of the neutral and bipolarononlike ground and excited states of molecules and polymers isoelectronic composed by Polyacetylene, Polyazine and Polyazoethene. The results obtained, utilizing DFT and ab initio methodologies, reveal that a very good defects description can be important in the investigation of insulator-metal transition of quasi-unidimensional polymers indicating metallic behavior around the Fermi level as mechanism of conductivity of polymers. This result is consistent with experimental data and do not anticipate by Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) methodology. These results are consistent with significant features as a nanodevice and can be summarized as: (i) it could be used as single directional molecular rectiffer with a conformational geometry with small lead coupling; (ii) our non-equilibrium green function simulation present that Polyacetylene, Polyazine and Polyazoethene could rectifield without gate current; (iii) based on properties of bonds type, it can be utilized to design devices with applications in molecular electronics.
