Conduction bands
Valence bands
Neutral polymer has full valence and empty conduction bands
Removal of one electron forms polarons
Removal of second electron forms bipolaron
Removal of more electrons forms bipolaron bands
Increased doping produces bipolarons bands and removes states from both the valence and conduction band.
