1 Introduction

1.1 π-Conjugated Polymers

1The emergence of conjugated polymers as a new class of electronic materials, has attracted
considerable attention, since the study of these systems has generated entirely new scientific
concepts as well as potential for new technology. Conjugated polymers are organic
semiconductors
