Conducting polymers constitute a new class of materials with unusual properties and high potential for technological applications. In spite of many years of theoretical and experimental work some of basic questions concerning their structure (more specifically the physical mechanisms behind the high conductivity) remain unclear. In contrast to conventional polymers where a large and ver...
