Theory of structure and conformation of polyacetylene

  • 1. Department of Physics, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio 44106

Description

An investigation of the structure of polyacetylene is carried out taking into account intrachain interactions. The distribution of torsional angles along the polymer chain is obtained using a transfer integral method. The most stable configuration at low temperature appears to be the cis-transoid conformation
