Abstract
This letter reports the results of temperature-dependent conductivity measurements performed for a conjugated polymer doped with magnetic co mplex. There, an abrupt decrease in conductivity was observed as tempe rature was lowered. The phenomenon is interpreted as the effect of the short-range magnetic order appearing and, consequently, affecting the transport processes by magnetic interactions mediated by charge-carry ing species (polarons, bipolarons). In addition, results of x-ray diff raction experiments that were performed are discussed.
