A random resistor network is proposed as a conceptual model for
electrical transport in conducting polymers. In such a theoretical
framework, structural and phenomenological aspects of the system can be
simultaneously represented. The influence of topological and
morphological disorder, chain length and polymer orientation on the
overall conductivity of the idealized polymeric sample is then
investigated as a preliminary and qualitative assessment to the
modelling technique. The results of computational simulations
demonstrate the importance of including structural characteristics into
the model to account for the intrinsic diversity of charge transfer
mechanisms which dictate the conducting behaviour of the polymer
material.
