Optoelectronic investigation and spectroscopic characteristics of polyamide-66 polymer

Abstract

A semi-crystalline designated nylon 66 polymer is a crucial, high-performance engineering material that is used in wide variety of industrial applications including sensors, electrical insulators, electronic devices, and automotive sector. Using modules based on density functional theory and finite-field approaches, this work explores the optoelectronic and spectroscopic characteristics of this polymer. Absorption, dielectric function, refractive index, and optical conductivity are the principle topics of this study. The effects indicated that nylon 66 is a first-rate insulator and the degree of crystallinity estimated is 46.44%. The simulated bandgap vs. the Tauc relation value is greater than 7.0 eV and has a proportional inaccuracy of 2.36%. Absorption coefficient value, however, suggests that while the refractive index and dielectric function remain stable, the optical conductivity is elevated. In order to determine the advantages appropriate for many applications, this research develops a strong basis and perception of the linear and nonlinear optical properties of nylon 66.
