Abstract

Conducting polymer nanofibers with diamers smaller than 100 nm were fabricated. Behavior in the electronic properties of polymer nanofibers was observed through SCM and single-fiber transport experiments. Measurements of single fibers with sharply varying diameter provide evidence that Schottky barriers form at the fiber-electrode contact, with a more opaque barrier at the thin end.
