“…These include conjugated and unconjugated ones and are: the natural rubber (poly(cisisoprene), polystyrene, styrene butadiene rubber, polyacetylene, polyphenylacetylene, poly(phenylene vinylene), polybutadiene, graphite, carbon nanotubes, and fullerene C 60 . Several conjugated polyenic naturally occurring molecules such βcarotene, β apo8′carotenal, astacene, methyl bixin, lycopene, lutein, retinoic acid, vitamin A acetate, zeaxanthin, and fucoxan thin, were reported to develop CTCs with molecular iodine in the solid state [267][268][269][270][271]. A remarkable finding was that these iodinetreated molecules were endowed with high electrical conductivity, and were found, therefore, appli cations in solid state batteries [25,269,270]; there was an electrical conductivity of 10 6 S·cm 1 for the iodinated mol ecules against 10 14 S·cm 1 for the virgin molecules.…”

A unique feature of molecular iodine by far, is its ability to bind to polymeric materials. A plethora of natural and synthetic polymers develop complexes when treated with molecular iodine, or with a mixture of mole cular iodine and potassium iodide. Many unexpected findings have been encountered upon complexation of iodine and the polymer skeleton, including the color formation, the polymer morphology changes, the compl exation sites or regions, the biological activity, and the electrical conductivity enhancement of the complexes, with poly iodides (I n¯) , mainly I 3¯ and I 5¯, as the actual binding species. Natural polymers that afford such complexes with iodine species are starch (amylose and amylopectin), chitosan, glycogen, silk, wool, albumin, cellulose, xylan, and natural rubber; iodinestarch being the oldest iodinenatural polymer complex. By contrast, numerous synthetic polymers are prone to make com plexes, including poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP), nylons, poly(Schiff base)s, poly aniline, unsaturated polyhydrocarbons (carbon nano tubes, fullerenes C 60 /C 70 , polyacetylene; iodinePVA being the oldest iodinesynthetic polymer complex.

“…An electric battery is the one form of non-conventional energy sources which convert chemical energy into electrical energy with the help of one or more electrochemical cells example lead-acid, Ni-Cd battery etc. The chemical battery has various disadvantages such as toxic, corrosion of electrodes and sometimes causes explosion, to overcome these problems many scientists study on the use of biological materials to make the biobatteries RESEARCH ARTICLE and these batteries are different from existing batteries [1][2][3][4] . Various studies on these cells reveal that there are two main contributions in energy generations from biocells 5 .…”

A biochemical property of Tibernaemontana divaricata plant leaves has been used to develop the renewable bioelectrical energy sources for micropower electronic devices and they are termed as bio-emf devices (BEDs). The unusual information of the bio-electro devices using leaves of ornamental importance and medicinal plant from the family Apocynaceae viz. Tibernaemontana divaricate has been studied. The qualitative aspects of the leaves to build up renewable bioelectrochemical low power sources have been attempted. In this experiment the qualitative results indicates the feasible involvement of bio-activities in the operational device of bio-emf devices.

“…Another interesting feature of these samples is that they form charge transl'er complex (CT) with iodine and after formation of the complex their conductivity increases by several powers of ten (Jain et al 1988). Moreover the CT complexes of these samples have been used quite successfully as batteries (Jain et al 1988;Sen et at 1993) and in this context this polyene fl-Apo-8' carotenal is very promising and the application can be extended to the development of some other devices.…”

The photoconductive properties of a carotenoid polyene,/%Apo-8' carotenal in polycrystalline form has been studied. The growth of the photoeurrent shows an overshoot in the growth-time curve before steady state value is attained. This behaviour of photocurrent is proposed to be due to higher value of recombination coefficient than trapping coefficient. From the temperature dependence study it is observed that the steady state photocurrent, at first increases with increase of temperature, attains a maximum at a particular temperature Tma x and then decreases with temperature. The T,,,x value agrees with the temperature above and below which steady state photocurrent is attained differently. Monomolecular and bimolecular recombination processes at two temperature regimes are proposed to account for the observed behaviour. The dependence of photoeurrent with excitation light intensity and wavelength study provide information on the carrier generation processes. The fast decay of photocurrent have been observed at different temperatures and from this study the decay constant is calculated and it is found to be temperature independent.geywords.
