一系列单硅烷-寡聚噻吩共聚高分子膜中电荷载流子及其迁移率的研究

研究了一系列由单硅烷和寡聚噻吩组成的共聚高分子膜在较宽掺杂电位范围内的光谱电化学变化规律. 用PSnT表示这一系列共聚高分子, 其中n表示高分子链上寡聚噻吩单元中噻吩环的个数, n分别为5, 7, 8, 10和14. 结果表明在一定的掺杂电位范围内这些PSnT膜可以可逆地电致变色. PSnT膜的光谱电化学和循环伏安研究均表明在电化学掺杂过程中PSnT膜中的寡聚噻吩单元可被两步氧化. 第一步氧化生成极子, 极子可二聚形成p-dimers, 两者之间存在着平衡. 而第二步氧化生成双极子. 双极子不能稳定存在于PS5T和PS7T膜中, 但可稳定存在于其它具有更长寡聚噻吩单元的PSnT膜中. 结合PSnT膜在不同电位下的表观迁移率数据讨论了膜中各种载流子对表观迁移率的影响. 表明当掺杂电位低于两步氧化过程的平均电位Emean时, 膜中表观迁移率的增加主要是由于p-dimers的形成及数量增加所引起的. 随着寡聚噻吩共轭长度(n)的增加, p-dimers更易形成, 因此PSnT膜中载流子的表观迁移率在更低的掺杂电位下开始增加并具有更大的增幅.

Covalent immobilization of glucose oxidase on films prepared by electrochemical copolymerization of 3-methylthiophene and thiophene-3-acetic acid for amperometric sensing of glucose: Effects of polymerization conditions on sensing properties

For the purpose of glucose sensing, enzyme electrodes were fabricated via covalent immobilization of glucose oxidase on the films of conducting polymer. The films were prepared electrochemically by the copolymerization of 3-methylthiophene and thiophene-3-acetic acid. The properties of the films were investigated by taking into account the polymerization conditions (the kind of supporting electrodes, the current, the amount of passed charge, and the monomer concentration) and the dedoping treatment. The glucose sensing performance of the enzyme electrode was found to be affected markedly by the following three factors of the conducting polymer film: surface morphology, conductivity and cohesion with support electrodes. It was suggested that the ideal conducting polymer used for the enzyme electrode should be a thin film having high conductivity and ordered nanostructure.     

Electrochemical synthesis and study of polydiphenylamine

The electrochemical oxidation of diphenylamine in acetonitrile produces an adherent conducting polymer film at the electrode. Conductivity measurements on pressed pellets of this polymer give a room temperature conductivity of 10 S cm⁻¹. The polymer can be cycled between 25 and 200°C without deterioration in the conductivity. Preliminary SEM/EDS studies suggest that there is one BF⁻₄ counter ion for every four monomer units in the oxidised polymer film.     

AC Impedance Studies on the Relationship between the Fractal Characteristics and Electrochemical Properties of Poly(Para‐Phenylene) Film

The effects of experimental conditions on the fractal structure of electrosynthetic polyparaphenylene films were studied by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results indicate that, at the potential range (0‐0.6 V), the film surface fractal dimension rises while the corresponding charge transfer resistances R_ct decrease as charge increases. This is consistent with the oxidized behavior of the conducting polymer. As for the degradation of electrolytes, scanning electron microscopy observations of poly(para‐pheneylene) (PPP) film provide evidence of the close relationship between the degradation of electrolytes and the film morphology, also in good agreement with the electrochemical impedance results interpretation. The X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis results present that the relative oxygen content ratio (O/C) of the films increases with the times the electrolyte is used, which reveals that the degradation of the electrolyte may result in a compact and passivation PPP film.     

Impedance change induced by varying polymerization temperature of conducting polymer thin films

In this study, we use a conducting polymer precursor to build layer-by-layer (LbL) films. Thermal conversion of the polymer precursor to conducting polymer makes the LbL films intractable, so the LbL films can be used as protective layers in salt solution. The conducting polymer LbL film shows stabilizing effect on top of another LbL thin film that contains nanoparticles. The LbL film prepared in this study shows a 35-fold increase of conductivity than the literature values obtained from non-conducting polymer films. The stabilization of the films is the result of the polymerization of the conducting polymer, so other anionic polymers or nanoparticles may be used to afford additional functionalities.     

Electrochemical Performance of Transition Metal‐Coordinated Polypyrrole: A Mini Review

The conductive polymer of polypyrrole can be acted as electroactive electrode material of supercapacitor due to reversible redox behavior and high capacitance. It usually suffers from low electrochemical stability due to the breakdown of polymer molecule chain in the long‐term charge and discharge process. The monometallic or bimetallic‐coordinated polypyrrole usually exhibits the improved electrochemical performance. The transition metal ions such as ruthenium, iron, copper and cobalt are adopted for the coordination modification. The transition metal‐coordinated polypyrrole includes the intrachain and interchain coordination structure between transition metal ion and nitrogen atom of pyrrole ring. It is able to reinforce the polymer molecule chain strength to overcome excessive volumetric swelling and shrinking during charge‐discharge process, improving the cycling stability and rate capability of polypyrrole. Accordingly, the transition metal‐coordinated polypyrrole keeps simultaneously high capacitance performance and electrochemical stability, acting as the promising conductive polymer‐based supercapacitor electrode material for effective energy storage.     

Effects of polymerization media on the nanoscale conductivity and current-voltage characteristics of chemically synthesized polyaniline films

A current sensing atomic force microscope (CS-AFM) was used to probe the conducting homogeneity and band structures of fully doped polyaniline (PANI) films prepared from in situ chemical polymerization/deposition of aniline on indium tin oxide in various inorganic acids. The charge transport properties of PANI films depend on the film thickness as well as polymerization medium. Fluctuations in conductivity are observed on all acid-doped PANI films and the conducting homogeneity was dependent on the film thickness: the conductivity of thick film is more uniform. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of all thick (>200 nm) films displayed a metal-like behavior and conductivity as high as 40 S/cm was detected in high conducting regions of film thicker than 400 nm. Whereas thin (<120 nm) films revealed insulating, semiconducting, and semimetal conducting, wide distribution in conductivity and interband distances (estimated from the I-V ordI/dV-V curves) was found. The interband distances is 0-1.35, 0-1.0, and 0-0.78 eV for thin PANI film prepared from HCl(aq), HClO(4)(aq), and H2SO4(aq), respectively. PANI film (260 nm) prepared from H2SO4(aq) revealed fiberlike morphology, and compared to PANI films prepared from HCl(aq) and HClO4(aq) with similar thickness, it has higher average nanoscale conductivity but lower bulk conductivity. This result could be direct evidence which supports that the bulk conductivity of PANI depended on the carriers hopping between the conducting domains.     

Polymer Optoelectronic Devices with High‐Conductivity Poly(3,4‐Ethylenedioxythiophene) Anodes

Abstract

The conductivity of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) film can be enhanced by more than two orders in magnitude by adding a compound with two or more polar groups, such as ethylene glycol (EG), meso‐erythritol (IUPAC name: 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroxybutane), or 2‐nitroethanol, into the PEDOT:PSS aqueous solution. The mechanism of the increase in conductivity for PEDOT:PSS has been studied using Raman spectroscopy and atomic force microscope (AFM). Here we propose that the change in conductivity is due to the conformational change of PEDOT chains in the film. In untreated PEDOT:PSS films, coil, linear, or expanded‐coil conformations of the PEDOT chains may be present. In treated PEDOT:PSS films, the linear or expanded‐coil conformations may becomes the dominant form for PEDOT chains. This conformational change results in the enhancement of charge‐carrier mobility in the film and leads to enhanced conductivity. The high‐conductivity PEDOT:PSS film is ideal as the electrode for polymer optoelectronic devices. In this article, we report on the fabrication of polymer light‐emitting diodes (PLEDs) and photovoltaic cells (PVs) made using a highly conductive form of PEDOT:PSS as anode, and we demonstrate its performance relative to that of similar device using indium‐tin oxide (ITO) as the anode.     

Spectroelectrochemical characterisation of poly[Ni(saltMe)]-modified electrodes

Electrogenerated polymers based on the nickel(II) complex 2,3-dimethyl-N,N'-bis(salicylidene)butane-2,3-diaminatonickel(II), poly[Ni(saltMe)], were characterised by in situ FTIR and UV/Vis spectroscopy and ex-situ EPR spectroscopy in order to gain insights into film structure, electronic states and charge conduction. The role of the nickel ions during film oxidation was probed by using EPR to study naturally abundant Ni and 61Ni-enriched polymers. The data from all the spectroscopic techniques are consistent, and clearly indicate that polymerisation and redox switching are associated with oxidative ligand based processes; coulometry suggests that one positive charge was delocalised through each monomer unit. EPR provided evidence for the non-direct involvement of the metal in polymer oxidation: the polymer is best described as a polyphenylene-type compound (conducting polymer), rather than an aggregation of nickel complexes (redox polymer), and the main charge carriers are identified as polarons. An explanation for the high electrochemical stability and conductivity of poly[Ni(saltMe)] with respect to that of poly[Ni(salen)] is proposed. based on stereochemical repulsion between monomeric units; this can impose a less compact supramolecular structure on polymers with bulkier substituents.     

Measuring the ionic flux of an electrochemically actuated conducting polymer using modified scanning ion conductance microscopy

We propose a modification of a scanning ion conductance microscope suitable for probing an electrode in an operating electrochemical cell. We demonstrate its use by measuring salt concentration variations near a conducting polymer electrode as the polymer is electrochemically oxidized and reduced. The electrochemical control circuit is opened to isolate the working electrode, at a frequency sufficiently high that the electrode capacitance maintains the electrode potential. The local solution conductivity variations are detected through the probe current during the open-circuit time. We demonstrate two-stage ion exchange during oxidation and reduction of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) films that develops strongly with repeated cycling and is correlated with actuation changes. Spatial composition variations of the film, caused by redox current distribution over the surface, and electromigration to the probe tip, causing local solution composition changes, have clear and characteristic effects on the measured transients.     

Conducting Redoxpolymer-Based Reagentless Biosensors Using Modified PQQ-Dependent Glucose Dehydrogenase

Reagentless, oxygen-independent glucose biosensors based on an Os-complex-modified polypyrrole matrix and on soluble PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus are described.As the soluble form of glucose dehydrogenase from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus is a hydrophilic enzyme with a positive net charge, its entrapment into the positively charged hydrophobic polypyrrole film is much more complicated than that of the corresponding membrane enzyme or the negatively charged and very stable glucose oxidase. Possible ways for using soluble PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase in combination with conducting polymer films are seen in the modulation of the enzyme properties by covalent binding of suitable compounds to the protein shell together with the adjustment of the properties of the conducting polymer film. This can be done by neutralising the net charge of the protein and/or optimising the electron-transfer pathway between enzyme and electrode surface by covalent binding of suitable redox relays to the protein surface.In addition, methods for increasing the hydrophilicity of the polymer film, such as the co-entrapment of high-molecular weight hydrophilic additives and copolymerisation of hydrophilic pyrrole derivatives are presented. It is demonstrated that the replacement of the parent monomer pyrrole by a suitable hydrophilic pyrrole derivative facilitates the entrapment of the modified soluble PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase into the Os-complex-modified polymer and hence allows for the development of reagentless biosensors.
