Bimolecular recombination kinetics and interfacial electronic structures of poly[2-methoxy-5-(2-ethyl-hexyloxy)-p-phenylene vinylene] on gold studied using two-photon photoemission spectroscopy

Photoexcitation kinetics and interfacial electronic structures of poly[2-methoxy-5(2-ethylhexyloxy)-p-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV) film on gold have been investigated using two-photon photoemission spectroscopy (2PPE). The authors directly probed a fixed intermediate state located at 0.95 eV above the Fermi level (or 2.95 eV below the vacuum level), assigned to a charged polaron. Based on the power law slope and the 2PPE spectra with laser intensity, they found that the polaron follows a second order bimolecular annihilation process. The 2PPE yield dramatically increases with increasing photon energy. They attribute this to an enhanced dissociation of hotter excitons at higher excitation levels. The work function of MEH-PPV/Au is measured to be 3.9 eV, 1.2 eV downshift from the clean gold, attributable to interface dipole effects. The energy gap between the intermediate polaron state and the hole polaron level is estimated to be 2.45 eV.     

A solid-contact Pb-selective electrode using poly(2-methoxy-5-(2′-ethylhexyloxy)-p-phenylene vinylene) as ion-to-electron transducer

In this work, a novel all-solid-state polymeric membrane Pb²⁺-selective electrode was developed by using for the first time poly(2-methoxy-5-(2′-ethylhexyloxy)-p-phenylene vinylene) (MEH-PPV) as solid contact. To demonstrate the ion-to-electron transducing ability of MEH-PPV, chronopotentiometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements were carried out. The proposed electrodes showed a Nernstian response of 29.1 mV decade⁻¹ and a lower detection limit of subnanomolar level. No water film was observed with the conventional plasticized PVC membrane. This work demonstrates a new strategy for the fabrication of robust potentiometric ion sensors.

Surface modification of poly(2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MEH-PPV) by confined photo-catalytic oxidation

In this study, the surface of π-conjugated polymer, poly(2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MEH-PPV), was successfully modified with the sulfate anion (SO(4-)) groups by the confined photo-catalytic oxidation (CPO). After the surface modification, the water contact angle of MEH-PPV is changed from 95.5° to 82.1° without influence on its optical properties (based on the UV and PL spectra), and the water droplet can be absorbed on the modified MEH-PPV surface without sliding even at substrate tilt angles of 90° and 180°. The CPO on the MEH-PPV surface is able to further expand the use of MEH-PPV for applications. In addition, the water transport test indicates that the modified MEH-PPV can be a candidate for transporting water droplet.     

Synthesis and electroconductivities of poly(2-methoxy-5-methythio-1,4-phenylene vinylene) and copolymers

Poly(2-methoxy-5-methylthio-1,4-phenylene vinylene), PMTPV, and copolymers containing both unsubstituted or 2,5-dimethoxy-substituted and 2-methoxy-5-methylthio-1,4-phenylene vinylene units were prepared in thin films from their water-soluble, sulfonium salt precursor polymers. Doping of drawn and undrawn films of PMTPV with I₂ vapor led to conductivities of 10^?4–10^?3 S cm^?1, which is significantly lower than those reported for poly(2,5-dimethoxy-1,4-phenylene vinylene). Conductivity of I₂-doped copolymer films ranges from 10^?3–10⁰ S cm^?1 depending on composition.

Thermal oxidation of poly(1-trimethylsilylprop-1-yne) studied by IR spectroscopy

Thermal oxidation of poly(1-trimethylsilylprop-1-yne) was studied by IR spectroscopy in the 20—245 °C temperature interval. In the 20—160 °C temperature range, the reaction proceeds predominantly at the C—Me group as revealed by the decrease in the intensity of the bands of the methyl group bound to the C atom and the appearance of the bands of the hydroperoxide and methylene groups. The decomposition of hydroperoxides produces aldehydes and ethers. At 160—200 °C, oxidation occurs via two routes: at the C—Me and C=C groups, while the Me₃Si group remains unchanged. At 230—240 °C, the rate of the reaction occurring at the C=C bond is higher than the rates of the processes involving the MeC and Me₃Si groups. The relative content of the structural units was calculated for the samples oxidized at different temperatures. Plausible mechanisms of thermal oxidation of poly(1-trimethylsilylprop-1-yne) were considered on the basis of the data obtained.     

Molecular recognition of 7-(2-octadecyloxycarbonylethyl)guanine to cytidine at the air/water interface and LB film studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy

Monolayer behavior of a nucleolipid amphiphile, 7-(2-octadecyloxycarbonylethyl)guanine (ODCG), on aqueous cytidine solution was investigated by means of surface-molecular area (pi-A) isotherms. It indicates that molecular recognition by hydrogen bonding is present between ODCG monolayer and the cytidine in subphase. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) transmission spectroscopic result indicates that the cytidine molecules in the subphase can be transferred onto solid substrates by Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique as a result of the formation of Watson-Crick base-pairing at the air/water interface. Investigation by rotating polarized FTIR transmission also suggests that the headgroup recognition of this amphiphile to the dissolved cytidine influence the orientation of the tailchains.
