Does anyone know a reliable PPy HOMO and LUMO positions vs. absolute vacuum scale? I have some data 5 eV for HOMO, 2.45 eV (dedoped) and 3.3 eV (doped) for LUMO. Is it correct, and are they pH dependent?
If I searched it right, I fear that that I have found a different result. Hoping to be excused if proved wrong.

[A]HOMO-LUMO energy difference is appxo 5ev in monomeric PPY.
[B] There appears shoulders between 4.5-5.5 eV due to excitation from the second OCCUPIED π State below the Fermi level to LUMO and from the HOMO to the second lowest unoccupied level.
