Abstract

The magnetic properties of poly(3-dodecyl-thiophene) (PDDT) irradiated by γ-beams have been studied by measuring the magnetic susceptibility and EPR spectra. The irradiated PDDT is characterized, similarly as the non-irradiated one, by an antiferromagnetic course of magnetic susceptibility with a Néel temperature of 237 K. It is suggested that the antiferromagnetic properties of PDDT are caused by transformation of polarons to bipolarons, which takes place at lower temperatures.
