STRUCTURAL AND ELECTRONIC PROPERTIES OF POLY-PAiM-PHENYLENE
We present results of ab initio calculations of the structural and electronic properties of poly-paraphenylene (PPP). The calculations are based on both the local density approximation (LDA) and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) within density functional theory. Structural parameters were determined for an isolated, infinite, periodic PPP polymer chains. Although the polymer band gap is underestimated, the results are in good agreement with recent theoretical work, and provide a basis for studies of the optoelectronic properties of the polymer.
