Abstract

Abstract: Over the last few years, polymeric materials have attracted a lot of scientific and technological researchers. The Possibility to obtain metal ions such as copper, nickel, silver, zinc, doped polymeric films with tunable structural, optical and photoconductive properties make them multifunctional materials for different varieties of applications specially in modern optics, optoelectronics, photonics, polymer waveguide, polymer solar cells )PSC), optical information storage, optical switching, polymer optical fibers (POF). The desired physical and chemical properties of a polymer needed for some certain specific application may be obtained by adding or doping different materials which have significant effect depending on their reactivity with the host polymer matrix. Although different transition metal elements used as dopants to get doped polymer films for desired optical applications, there are few articles concerned with studying photoconductive phenomenon for these films. Due to their unusual physical and chemical properties, transition metal doped polymer films have diverse applications that touch many aspects of modern...
