Spatial properties of $\pi -\pi$ conjugated network in semicrystalline polymer thin films studied by intensity x-ray cross-correlation functions

Abstract

We present results of x-ray study of spatial properties of $\pi -\pi$ conjugated networks in polymer thin films. We applied the x-ray cross-correlation analysis to x-ray scattering data from blends of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and gold nanoparticles. The Fourier spectra of the intensity cross-correlation functions for different films contain non-zero components of orders $n=2,4$ and $6$ measuring the degree of structural order in the system.
