High frequency study of electropolymerised conducting polypyrrole thin film

The polypyrrole (PPY) thin films were synthesized by electropolymerisation in potassium nitrate solution. The substrate used was stainless steel. DC conductivity, microwave reflection, microwave conductivity and microwave dielectric constant of the conducting PPY thin films are reported. DC conductivity was between 1.6 × 10⁻² S/cm and 42.3 × 10⁻² S/cm. Microwave conductivity was between 10 S/cm and 160 S/cm. The ?′ generally decreases as frequency increases similarly ?″ also decreases with increases in frequency. The measurements have been carried over the frequency range 8.2-12 GHz. These polypyrrole thin films were characterized by FTIR. The polypyrrole thin film increases the reflectivity of the stainless steel.     

FTIR reflectance studies of electrochemically prepared polypyrrole films

-1 . The effects of some relevant electrochemical parameters (the electrolyte, the polymerization current density, and the deposition time) on the reflectance spectra of polypyrrole are reported. The optical constants for polypyrrole films were calculated from the reflectance spectra by Kramers–Kronig technique. The decrease of the electropolymerization current density and film thickness results in an increase of the reflectance and dc conductivity values for PPY(TSO).

Proton and electron conduction in polymer intercalated vanadium pentoxide xerogel

A comprehensive proton and electron conduction in vanadium pentoxide xerogel-conducting polymer nanocomposites are analyzed by the impedance spectroscopy. The complex impedance plots are used to estimate the proton and electron conductivity. Both protonic and electronic conductivities follow Arrhenius type behavior with temperature. Protonic conductivity increases with the increase of intercalated conducting polypyrrole. The highly ordered conducting polypyrrole (PPY) molecule enhances the diffusion of H₃O⁺ ions into the host lattice. Broad dielectric loss peaks are found in a wide range of frequency domain (KHz–MHz). The intercalated water within the oxide network of vanadium pentoxide remains supercooled up to lowest measured temperature 137 K.

Construction of 3D polypyrrole/CoS/graphene composite electrode with enhanced pseudocapacitive performance

Herein, 3D graphene/nickel foam (GE/NF) composite matrix was successfully fabricated by using NF as template through a self-catalytic thermal chemical vapor deposition process. By using the prepared GE/NF as substrate, CoS nanosheets were deposited via a facial one-step electrochemical deposition method. Owing to the advantage of GE in boosting the electrical contact between the electroactive host material and current collector, the as-prepared 3D CoS/GE/NF electrode demonstrated a superior capacitance value of 2308 F g^?1 at 1 A g^?1 and a high rate capability of 70.49% at 20 A g^?1. After depositing the polypyrrole (PPY) film on 3D CoS/GE/NF electrode, the electrochemical performance of CoS was further greatly improved and delivered an extremely high capacitance value of 3450 F g^?1 at 1 A g^?1, with good rate capability (62.61% at 20 A g^?1) and improved cycling stability. The enhanced electrochemical performance of PPY/CoS/GE/NF electrode is closely related to the advantage of PPY film in increasing the electrical conductivity and reinforcing the integrity of electrode.

Ir(PPY)3掺杂PVK的电致发光机理

近几年来发展起来的电致磷光(electrophosphorescence)是有机发光二极管(OLED)研究的新生长点。对电致磷光发光机理的研究随即得到了人们普遍的关注。比较了不同正向偏压条件下Ir(PPY)₃掺杂聚乙烯基咔唑(PVK)的光致发光(PL)和电致发光(EL)光谱。研究结果显示在电场和注入电流的共同作用下,PL光谱中基质PVK发光的相对强度并没有发生显著的变化。电场或注入载流子不会影响PVK向Ir(PPY)₃的能量传递。磷光掺杂聚合物EL主要是由于载流子在掺杂磷光分子上的直接复合,而不是由基质向磷光掺杂分子的能量传递。     

One‐Dimensional Magnetic Composite of Polypyrrole‐Containing Carbon Nanotubes/Ni0.75Zn0.25Fe2O4

A novel one‐dimensional electromagnetic nanocomposite of polypyrrole (PPY) containing carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/Ni_0.75Zn_0.25Fe₂O₄ was synthesized by an in‐situ polymerization method. The composite was characterized by x‐ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Fourier transform infrared. The XRD results confirmed that PPY, CNTs, and Ni_0.75Zn_0.25Fe₂O₄ coexisted in the composite. The TEM and HRTEM results indicated that PPY coated the surface of the CNTs/Ni_0.75Zn_0.25Fe₂O₄ with a thickness of 15–30 nm. The lattice spacings, according to the first main peak of the CNTs, Ni_0.75Zn_0.25Fe₂O₄, and PPY, was about 0.34 nm, 0.25 nm, and 0.42 nm, respectively. The FTIR result also indicated that the PPY formed in the composite. A test of magnetic properties indicated that the composite was ferromagnetic with the saturated magnetization of 12.86 electromagnetic units (emu)/g, and the coercive of 127.18 Oersted (Oe).     

Conducting polymers as driving electrodes for Polymer-Dispersed Liquid-Crystals display devices: On the electro-optical efficiency

Intrinsically conducting polymer (ICP) thin films are used as driving electrodes for Polymer-Dispersed Liquid-Crystals (PDLC) display devices. In order to investigate the electro-optical efficiency of these organic electrodes, three different kinds of conducting polymers, i.e. polyaniline doped with 10-camphorsulfonic acid (PANI(HCSA)), polypyrrole doped with dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (PPY(DBSA)), and polyethylenedioxythiophene doped with polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT(PSS)), were prepared or purchased, and coated either on glass or plastic substrates. Optical absorption studies in the UV-Vis range of the conducting polymer-coated substrates were first performed showing the presence of conducting species for the three types of polymers. The electrical characteristics of the resulting films were measured with the four-probes technique. PANI(HCSA) exhibits a higher conductivity ( ) compared to PPY(DBSA) ( ), and PEDOT(PSS) ( ). It is also shown that for a given conducting polymer, its electrical conductivity decreases when a plastic substrate is used. These observations have been related to significant morphological changes observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A mixture of Norland Optical Adhesive 65 and nematic liquid-crystal E7 in the weight ratio (35:65) was used as precursor of the PDLC material. Better electro-optical responses (transmission properties, drive voltages and switching times) of PDLC films were obtained for devices prepared with (PPY(DBSA))-based electrodes. The electro-optical performances of the PDLC display devices also depend on the nature of the ICP substrate used.Received: 25 September 2002, Published online: 29 July 2003PACS: 73.61.Ph Polymers; organic compounds - 42.79.Kr Display devices, liquid-crystal devices - 82.35.Cd Conducting polymers - 42.70.Df Liquid crystals F.

非能动传热球床堆有效导热系数的壁面效应分析

本文针对非能动传热机制下简单立方球床堆有效导热系数进行了数值研究,根据有效导热系数的空间分布特性,对球床堆的近壁面区域和主体区域作了划分;分析了不同非能动传热机制下的有效导热系数的壁面效应;最后分析了导热、辐射和自然对流对近壁面和主体区域有效导热系数的贡献。结果发现,近壁面区域是在壁面附近一个球径范围内的区域;由于辐射和自然对流的影响,相同温度下近壁面有效导热系数比主体区域的有效导热系数小了近15%。当温度分别超过950 K和1080 K时,辐射成为球床堆主体区域和近壁面区域的主导传热机制;自然对流对有效导热系数的贡献并不大,当温度超过600 K时,自然对流可以忽略。研究结果可以为高温球床堆的设计与优化提供理论基础。     

Electrical Conductivity in Polyazomethines: A Novel Mechanism Derived from All Valence MO Calculation and IR Study of Polymer–Dopant Interaction

A simple mechanism is proposed to explain the variation of electrical conductivity in polyazomethines. The results of semiempirical, all valence, molecular orbital calculations obtained from the PM3 method have been employed to arrive at the mechanism. The difference of energy (ΔE) between highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) alone could not explain the variation in electrical conductivity; however, ΔE together with the LUMO electron density at the atoms that lie on the continuous chain could account for the electrical conductivity in these polymers. The LUMO electron density on these centers may be visualized as the carrier movement. In certain polymers there are intrinsic holes in HOMO. The movement of these intrinsic holes also adds to the electrical conduction. The polyazomethines are prepared by the condensation of diamines with azo bis-aldehydes. A few of these polymers were doped with silver nanoparticles. Many of the doped polymers showed substantial enhancement in conductivity. Strong polymer–dopant interaction, identified by IR spectroscopy, is proposed to be responsible for the increase in conductivity.

Normal phonon-phonon scattering processes and the thermal conductivity of germanium crystals with isotope disorder

The influence of the normal phonon-phonon scattering processes on the thermal conductivity was theoretically studied for germanium crystals with various degrees of the isotope disorder. The theory takes into account redistribution of the phonon momentum in the normal scattering processes both inside each oscillation branch (Simons mechanism) and between various phonon oscillation branches (Herring mechanism). Contributions to the thermal conductivity due to the drift mobility of the longitudinal and transverse phonons are analyzed. It is shown that the momentum redistribution between longitudinal and transverse phonons according to the Herring relaxation mechanism leads to a significant suppression of the drift motions (and to the corresponding drop in contribution to the thermal conductivity) of the longitudinal phonons in isotopically pure germanium crystals. The results of the thermal conductivity calculations involving the Herring relaxation mechanism agree well with the experimental data available for germanium crystals with various degrees of the isotope disorder.     

Hopping conductivity in polycrystalline diamond films

The results of the experimental study of the conductivity of a polycrystalline diamond film by dielectric spectroscopy are presented. A diamond film about 200 μm thick was grown by microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition for 180 h. Two pronounced local peaks in the frequency dependence of the conductivity were observed. The relevant frequencies were temperature-dependent. These data permit us to hypothesize that the hopping mechanism of conductivity occurs in the polycrystalline diamond film. Two types of electrically active centers with different activation energies and relaxation times are involved in the conductivity.     

Methods for preparation of transparent conductive diamond-like carbon films and mechanisms of conductivity formation

Technology for obtaining transparent conductive diamond-like carbon films has been developed. Conductivity of the films is ensured by doping with nitrogen during the growth process or by preliminary deposition onto the substrate of a catalyst of nanostructure growth. Optical methods of control of the process which allow varying both the transparency and conductivity of the obtained coatings are described. The mechanisms of formation of conductivity in a dielectric carbon matrix were investigated. It is shown that in the presence of catalysts the conductivity of films can be described using a percolation mechanism.
