A desity functional study on narrow band gap donor-acceptor type conducting polymers
(Bilkent University, 2004)The band gap is one of the most important factors for controlling the physical properties. The search for polymers having narrow band gaps is a current topic. Tuning of the band gap by structural modification is possible. ... -
Electronic structure analysis and density functional study of an alternating donor/acceptor polymer
(Bilkent University, 2001)Conducting polymers have attracted great attention for the last two decades because of their potential applications in many fields. One of the major goals for the scientists who are studying in this field is to synthesize ... -
Modeling solvent effects on excitation energies for polyenes
(Bilkent University, 2006)Excitation energies of polyenes in solution are about 0.3-0.4 eV lower than in the gas phase. Understanding the solvent effect is important to the design of low band gap conducting polymers. This thesis is to evaluate ... -
Theoretical investigation of approaches for obtaining narrow band gaps in conducting polymers
(Bilkent University, 2004)Over the last few years, there has been a great deal of research interest in developing organic conjugated polymers with narrow energy band gaps. Narrow band gap polymers would be intrinsically conducting, and thus ... -
Theoretical simulations of UV-Vis and UP spectra for conjugated systems
(Bilkent University, 2009)Due to their unique electro-optical properties, there has been a great deal of scientific interest in electronic structure of conjugated systems. In order to reveal the complete map of their electronic structure, several ...
