Abstract

We investigate polarization-resolved terahertz (THz) transmission through a doped polythiophene film consisting of partially oriented polymer chains. The THz complex conductivities are found to be significantly larger for polarization parallel to the principal direction of orientation than for polarization perpendicular to it, but involve no change in spectral shape with polarization. This indicates that charge transport occurs mainly along polythiophene chains with their in-plane angle distribution, ruling out a possible interchain contribution, whose spectral shape should be sensitive to polarization.
