Among specific topics are defects in solids, the decline of Old Quantum Theory, characteristics of Fermi level, intrinsic semiconductors, the variation of photoconductivity with illumination, the origin of magnetization, and a classification of superconductors by their magnetic field behavior.
places the Fermi level closer to the occupied density of states and could create a hole carrier concentration as well as lead to defect state trapping and hopping conductivity to the P3HT.
Interfacial charge injection is dictated by chemical bonding and the resulting band lineup between the Fermi level of the contact and transport levels (HOMO and LUMO) of the molecule.
