dc.descriptionWe performed dielectric spectroscopy on polypyrrole near the metal-insulator transition (MIT) down to 2 K. We evaluate the dependence of the plasma frequency and the scattering time (t) on the distance to the MIT, characterized by the Fermi-level relative to the band-edge of extended states, E_F-E_c. Especially the strong decrease of t with increasing E_F-E_c is in conflict with the usually applied models for the MIT. Although morphology and disorder are important, the MIT is Mott-Hubbard-like being dominated by the competition of interchain charge transfer and electronic correlation.
