Abstract

Idealized geometric and chemical models based on ordered molecular systems are used to discuss the structural, optical, and charge-transfer properties of conjugated polymers such as polyacetylene, (CH)x, and poly-p-phenylene, (C6 H4 )x. . Specific interchain interactions are proposed to contribute to the optical properties of (CH)x and possible experimental manifestations are discussed. The interaction of MX5 moi-eties with conjugated polymers are discussed in terms of com-peting processes involving covalent bond-breaking and-forma-tion vs. electron transfer. The possible stabilization_by the polymers of presently unknown species, such as AsF5 , is discussed. A geometric origin is proposed for the con-ductivity anisotropy of (CH)x and this approach is used to speculate on a possible new type of two-dimensional conductor.
