Conducting Polyaniline Nanowire Arrays Modified Electrode for High Performance Supercapacitor and Enhanced Catalysis of Nitrite Reduction

Vertically aligned conducting polymer nanowire arrays had great potential applications in supercapacitor electrode material and exhibited enhanced electrocatalytic behavior towards the reduction of nitrite. In this paper, a facial template‐free approach to synthesize large arrays of vertically aligned polyaniline (PANI) nanowires on electrochemically pretreated glassy carbon electrodes was reported by using a galvanostatic current method. The as‐prepared large arrays of PANI nanowires had very narrow diameters and were oriented perpendicular to the substrate, which was a benefit to the ion diffusion when being used as the supercapacitor electrode. The highest specific capacitance of PANI nanowire arrays was measured and kept high at a large charge‐discharge current density. Furthermore, it also can detect nitrite with ultrahigh sensitivity of 62.99 µA mM^?1 cm^?2 and a remarkable fast response time of less 1 s. The results indicated that the vertically aligned PANI nanowires could dramatically enhance the electrochemical performance.

Photovoltaic Behaviour of Titanyl Phthalocyanine Thin Films and Titania Bilayer Films

Summary: Titanyl phthalocyanine (TiOPc) thin films were prepared using evaporation and surface polymerization by ion-assisted deposition (SPIAD) in a vacuum deposition system. These films were characterized by means of ultraviolet and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy as well as UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy. Valence band and elemental content indicated that phthalocyanine electronic and chemical structures were largely preserved during SPIAD. Further, bilayer thin films of titania (TiO₂) and SPIAD TiOPc were prepared. TiO₂ film was deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering of TiO₂ target. Study of the structured samples was focused on the optical and electrical properties of the composite films. The films were characterized by non-contact photovoltage measurements and UV-Vis spectroscopy. These results suggest there is a possibility to use these bilayer thin films in photovoltaic solar cells, however further experiments to improve conductivity of the films will be required.

Sol-Gel Thin Films of BaFe12O19 from Chemically Modified Alkoxide Precursors

Homogeneous BaFe₁₂O₁₉ (BaM) thin films have been prepared by the dip-coating technique on microscope slides and SiO₂ wafers using barium and iron alkoxides as precursors, and diethanolamine as a modifier. In order to optimise the coating conditions, the influence of the alkoxide, water and modifier on the sol viscosity, thickness and appearance of the Fe₂O₃ films has been investigated. For comparison of the crystallisation and magnetic properties, powders of the same composition as the films have been also prepared by the sol-gel method. The BaM phase appears after annealing at 650°C for 6 hours. The BaM film and powder, heated at 850°C for 6 hours, give coercive force of about 3000 and 5500 Oe, respectively.

Photoactive polymer blends: Films consisting of two photoactive homopolymers, MEH‐PPV and P3HT, are prepared via spin coating. Investigation of the lateral domain distance inside the blended film, performed by using grazing incidence small angle X‐ray scattering techniques, shows that the theoretically predicted blending ratio seems most promising (see figure).

     

Two-Dimensional Conjugated Polymer Synthesized by Interfacial Suzuki Reaction: Towards Electronic Device Applications

Preparing two-dimensional conjugated polymers (2DCPs) with desirable structures and semiconducting properties is promising but remains a great challenge. Presented here is a new 2DCP, named 2D polytriethyltriindole (2DPTTI), which is efficiently synthesized by a modified interfacial Suzuki reaction from 2,7,12-tribromo-5,10,15-triethyltriindole (2-BrTTI) and 1,4-benzenediboronic acid dipinacol ester (BADE) precursors at room temperature. Wafer-scale free-standing 2DPTTI films with controllable thicknesses between 2.5 and 46.0 nm were obtained by adjusting the experimental conditions. The resulting 2DPTTI films, used as an active layer in organic field effect transistors (OFETs), exhibited typical p-type semiconducting properties and superior UV optoelectronic performance with a photosensitivity of 3.7×10³ and responsivity of 1.4×10³ A W⁻¹, as well as a light-blue fluorescence character. This report provides a general approach for constructing various semiconducting 2DCPs, by an interfacial Suzuki reaction, towards multifunctional organic electronics.     

Probing the Roughness of Porphyrin Thin Films with X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

Thin-film growth of molecular systems is of interest for many applications, such as for instance organic electronics. In this study, we demonstrate how X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) can be used to study the growth behavior of such molecular systems. In XPS, coverages are often calculated assuming a uniform thickness across a surface. This results in an error for rough films, and the magnitude of this error depends on the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons analyzed. We have used this kinetic-energy dependency to estimate the roughnesses of thin porphyrin films grown on rutile TiO₂(110). We used two different molecules: cobalt (II) monocarboxyphenyl-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin (CoMCTPP), with carboxylic-acid anchor groups, and cobalt (II) tetraphenylporphyrin (CoTPP), without anchor groups. We find CoMCTPP to grow as rough films at room temperature across the studied coverage range, whereas for CoTPP the first two layers remain smooth and even; depositing additional CoTPP results in rough films. Although, XPS is not a common technique for measuring roughness, it is fast and provides information of both roughness and thickness in one measurement.     

Acetic Acid Based Sol-Gel PLZT Thin Films: Processing and Characterization

PLZT 4/65/35 thin films were prepared by the acetic acid based sol-gel route. The choice of lanthanum precursor, i.e., acetate or nitrate, influences the functional group content of formamide modified sols and the microstructure of the thin films. The lanthanum nitrate based PLZT thin film deposited on Si/SiO2/TiO2 /Pt/TiO2 substrate has a columnar perovskite grain structure, while the lanthanum acetate based one is characterized by a lead-silicon containing reaction layer beneath the platinum electrode. Although lead is depleted from the PLZT thin film the perovskite structure is retained by the use of the top layer with a large excess of PbO.     

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophen)/Poly(4-styrenesul-fonate): Thin Films and Microfibers

Spectroscopic Ellipsometry for Characterization of Thin Films of Polymer Blends

Morphology, composition, miscibility, interdiffusion, and interactions at interfaces are important quantities of polymer blends. Many of these parameters can be probed with spectroscopic ellipsometry. Ellipsometry in the visible spectral range is very suitable for determination of thicknesses and the high frequency refractive indices of thin organic films. However the spectral contrast is low for many polymers in comparison to infrared spectroscopic ellipsometry (IRSE) where specific contributions of the molecular vibrations are probed. In the presented study the infrared optical constants of a double layer (206.6 nm in total) of poly(n-butyl methacrylate) (PnBMA) and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and of the films of the single compounds have been determined with optical simulations using layer models. The multiple layer model served for simulation of the ellipsometric spectra taken after an annealing induced mixing process in a polymeric double layer. The ellipsometric spectra of a not completely mixed sample could be fitted in a three-layer model, in which a mixed interphase in between the two layers of the polymers is formed due to interdiffusion.     

Controlled Nanopores in Thin Films of Nonstoichiometrically Supramolecularly Assembled Graft Copolymers

Herein, nanometer‐scale morphologies of graft‐copolymer‐like supramolecular thin films, composed of sulfonic acid terminated polystyrene (SPS) and poly(2‐vinylpyridine) (P2VP), and their application to antireflection coatings were investigated. The intermolecular complexes of SPS and P2VP, formed through nonstoichiometric multiple hydrogen bonding between the sulfonic acid group of SPS and the nitrogen atom in pyridine unit of P2VP, occurring in film deposition allowed for the formation of spherical micelles (with SPS and P2VP as the corona and core, respectively) in the thin film. Interestingly, the domain size of the micelles was tunable from approximately 20 to 90 nm on average by controlling either the blend ratio of components or the concentration of polymer solution. Furthermore, nanoporous thin films could be easily prepared by removing the core of micelle‐based nanostructures by using a simple solvent etching process, leaving sulfonic acid groups on the surface of nanopores, which can be utilized as potential functional sites. Those resultant nanoporous thin films were conveniently employed as an antireflection layer on a glass substrate, giving a maximum 97.8 % transmittance in the visible wavelength range.
