Abstract
Polypyrrole conducting polymer was prepared by chemical reaction method with various concentrations of iron (III) chloride (FeCl3) as dopant. The dc conductivity was obtained from current-voltage characteristic by using parallel-plate techniques in the temperature range of 100-300K. With the involvement of chloride, Cl-in the polymeric chain, the conductivity increased as temperature and the dopant concentration increased. To describe the electrical transport process, Mott’s 1-D, 2-D and 3-D variable range hopping (VRH) models have been considered. The result gives evidence of transport mechanism based on Mott’s 3-D VRH mechanism for all various dopant concentrations studied.
