Chemical, electronic, and structural properties of conducting heterocyclic polymers: A view by XPS

TL;DR: In this article, the XPS results are best interpreted by assigning a nonmetallic character to the pyrrole polymers, in accordance with other experiments, and significant improvement in the structural order is achieved by blocking the β sites on the polypyrrole ring with methyl groups to ensure a completely α,α′ bonded polymer.
