Abstract

We discuss the formation of charged defects such as solitons, polarons and bipolarons, in doped conjugated polymers. We present the results of ab initio quality calculations on the modifications of geometric and electronic structures occurring upon doping. A transport model for spinless conduction through bipolarons applicable to doped polymers with or without degenerate ground state is described.
