Abstract

We have extended the existing Rose–Fowler–Vaisberg model of the radiation-induced conductivity (RIC) in polymers by incorporating the latest ideas borrowed from theoretical and experimental results obtained in the field of electronic transport in molecularly doped polymers. These include the Poole–Frenkel-type field-dependent mobility and the arguments of the dipolar disorder formalism based on the Gaussian disorder model. Theory validation uses a new experimental technique based on the electron-gun technology allowing combined-induced conductivity and carrier mobility measurements in a typical molecularly doped polymer. Quasi-band and hopping theories of the carrier transport are critically discussed.
