Partial Carbonization of Aromatic Polyimide Films
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
Aromatic polyimide films are partially carbonized between 700°C and 1000°C. Electrical conductivity and Hall coeficient have been measured. Electrical conductivity is higher at higher measuring temperatures. The electrical conductivity σ can be expressed as σ= σ0exp (–E /kT), where k is the Boltzman constant. T is the absolute temperature. E depends upon the carborized temperature. The experimental data show the Hall coefficient RH is negative, and this implies the carriers are negatively charged, i.e. electrons. The specimens are n-type semiconductors. The carrier density η can be expressed by η= A1 exp (–E1/κT) and carrier mobility μ can be expressed by μ = A1exp ( E2/κT). E, E1andE2 depend upon the carbonized temperature
