The structure, electrical properties, morphology and optical properties of PMMA samples are modified by ion implantation. The increase in electrical conductivity and decrease in optical band gap make PMMA a promising material for flexible electronics.
The samples of Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) have been implanted with 700 keV N+-ions at different fluences ranging from 3 x 10(13) to 5 x 10(14) ions/cm(2) using Pelletron accelerator. The modifications in structural, electrical, morphological and optical properties of implanted polymer are examined using Raman spectrometer, Four probe technique, scanning electron microscope and UV-visible spectrometer, respectively. Raman spectroscopic analysis confirms the formation of carbonaceous structures at relatively lower fluence >= 2 x 10(14) N+/cm(2). The formation of carbonaceous network results in enhancement of conductivity of a PMMA sample from 2.14 x 10(-10) to semiconducting regime (1.06 x 10(-6) S/cm). The microscopic images show surface modifications in terms of ion-induced cracks, pores and wrinkles with increasing ion fluence. The optical bandgap reduces from 3.18 to 2.97 eV after implantation at 5 x 10(14) ions/cm(2). Moreover, the Urbach energy, photoconductivity and refractive index are found to increase with increasing ion fluence. The combination of increased electrical conductivity and reduced optical band gap energy makes PMMA a promising candidate for flexible electronics.
