Tuning effective hyperfine fields in PEDOT:PSS thin films by doping

Using electrically detected magnetic resonance spectroscopy, we demonstrate that doping the conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene-sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) with ethylene glycol allows for the control of effective local charge carrier hyperfine fields through motional narrowing. These results suggest that doping of organic semiconductors could enable the tuning of macroscopic material properties dependent on hyperfine fields such as magnetoresistance, the magneto-optical responses and spin-diffusion.
