Abstract
The Hall effects of two different types of conducting polymers, poly [ (6-N-pyrrolylhexyl)hexylsilane] (PSiPy) and poly(N-methylpyrrole) (PMe Py) have been studied. Both of the polymers showed electrical conducti vity orders of 10(-2) S/cm by I-2 doping. The polysilane, PSiPy, which is a sigma-conjugated polymer, has a positive Hall coefficient and th e absolute value of carrier mobility is higher by three orders of magn itude than that of the polypyrrole, PMePy, although the conductivities of both polymers are of the same order.
