A tight binding method with SCF AO's is employed to investigate the energy band structure of phenazine N oxide and phenazine N dioxide. The mode of charge transport along various crystallographic directions is examined in the light of existing theories of charge transport in organic semiconductors. The effect of heteroatoms on the mode of charge transport is discussed. Phenazine N Oxide and phenazine N dioxide are found to be candidate materials for organic photovoltaic devices.
