Abstract

The electronic structure of poly [3-(4-octylphenyl)thiophene](POPT) has been studied by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), as well as by quantum chemical calculations. Both temperature-dependent effects on the electronic structure of the neutral system, as well as the generation of new electronic states induced by doping with alkaline metals, have been observed. The experimental results are in good agreement with the results of the quantum chemical calculations.
