Dielectric studies on conjugated polymers

Dielectric measurements on polymers are a powerful method widely used to st udy their phase transitions and relaxations. In spite of that, few dielectr ic studies were reported on conjugated polymers even though phase transitio ns and relaxations give rise to strong effects on both the optical and elec tronical properties due to the rearrangements of the polar side groups. In this work we report the characterization of the dielectric properties of po lydiacetylenes with different supramolecular architectures.
