Transparent conductive films based on polymer composites containing the mixed‐valence tetrathiafulvalene nanofibers

We report the facile preparation of the conductive polymer composites containing the mixed‐valence tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) nanofibers and their applications as all‐organic transparent conductive materials. TTF can be used as a nanofiller for transforming conventional polymers to conductive materials. Self‐assemble nanofibers of the neutral and radical cation of TTF can be formed in the polymer solutions during the film deposition, and the resulting composite films with several micron thickness can serve as the conductive material with high transparency. Several kinds of conventional polymers, such as polystyrene, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), and poly(vinylpyrrolidone), can be used as a polymer matrix of the composites. The conductivities of the PMMA film containing 35 mol % of the mixed‐valence TTF and the PEDOT–PSS film showed similar values (2.8 × 10^–2 and 5.4 × 10^–1 S/cm, respectively). In contrast, the normalized transmittance of the PMMA film by 1‐μm thickness greatly increased (96%/μm) when compared with that of the PEDOT–PSS film (10%/μm). In addition, the degradation of the conductivity of the nanofibers by heating and aging was effectively suppressed in the composite samples. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis of proton conductive inorganic–organic hybrid membranes through copolymerization of dimethylethoxyvinylsilane with vinylphosphonic acid

Proton conductive inorganic–organic hybrid membranes were synthesized from dimethylethoxyvinylsilane (DMEVS), vinylphosphonic acid (VPA) and 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) through copolymerization followed by sol–gel process. The ratio of phosphorus to silicon in the copolymer almost corresponded to the charged molar ratio of VPA to DMEVS when the ratio of VPA to DMEVS was below 1/2. Self-standing, homogeneous, highly transparent membranes were synthesized from DMEVS–VPA copolymer and GPTMS via sol–gel condensation. Differential thermal analysis-thermogravimetry analyses indicated that these membranes were thermally stable up to 200 °C. The results of Fourier transform infrared and ¹³C NMR revealed that phosphonic acid groups of VPA were chemically bound to organosiloxane network. The copolymerization and condensation of (DMEVS–VPA)/GPTMS were confirmed by ³¹P and ²⁹Si NMR spectra. The proton conductivity of the hybrid membranes increased with phosphonic acid content. The membrane of (DMEVS–VPA)/GPTMS showed a remarkable conductivity of 6.3 × 10⁻² S cm⁻¹ at 130 °C and 100% relative humidity.     

Structural,optical and electrical properties of Ga-doped and (Ga,Co)-codoped ZnO films

The Ga-doped and (Ga, Co)-codoped ZnO films were grown on quartz glass substrate by inductively coupled plasma enhanced physical vapor deposition. The effect of Co doping and oxygen pressure on the structural, optical, electrical and magnetic properties of the as-grown films was investigated. The structural characterization revealed that high-quality films were grown with wurtzite structure and c-axis preferred crystalline orientation. The surface morphology was affected by Co doping and oxygen pressure. Room-temperature ferromagnetism was observed in (Ga, Co)-codoped ZnO films. We found that the optical and electrical properties were degraded with Co doping. The Ga-doped ZnO films had an average transmittance of above 88% in the visible wavelength, while (Ga, Co)-codoped ZnO showed a lower average transmittance (∼65%) due to the d-d transitions of Co²⁺. The resistivity and Hall mobility of (Ga, Co)-doped ZnO samples were lower than those of Ga-doped ZnO films when grown at the same oxygen pressure.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Conductive Polypyrrole/Montmorillonite Nanocomposites via One-pot Emulsion Polymerization

A series of electrically conductive polypyrrole/clay nanocomposites were synthesized in this work by using one-pot emulsion oxidative polymerization of pyrrole in the presence of unmodified clay and using DBSNa as the surfactant. The effect of surfactant on the morphological and electrical properties of PPy also were investigated and discussed in some extent. Electrical conductivity of the samples was measured by using samples in which the conductive materials was sandwiched between two Ni electrodes at room temperature. PPy/MMT nanocomposites were characterized by using XRD, TEM, TGA and DSC means of investigation. Intercalated structures were determined for the nanocomposites as confirmed by XRD and TEM studies. Electrical conductivity of the nanocomposites was measured to be dependent to the clay content, and the methods of preparation. Measurement also showed that polymerization of pyrrole monomers pre-intercalated between the clay gallery spaces of the clay led to higher conductivity for the nanocomposite in the same level of clay content. Thermal property measurements showed a lower thermal decomposition rate for the PPy/MMT nanocomposites with respect to the PPy.     

Influence of negative ion resputtering on Al-doped ZnO thin films prepared by mid-frequency magnetron sputtering

Al-doped ZnO (AZO) films were deposited on glass substrates by mid-frequency magnetron sputtering with a ceramic ZnO:Al₂O₃ (98 wt%:2 wt%) target. The origin of the high resistivity of the films at the substrate position facing the erosion area of the target was investigated. The results indicate a preferential resputtering of Zn atoms caused by the negative ions, which leads to an increase of the oxygen/metal ratio in the films. Then more Al oxides form and result in the decrease of Al_Zn (the main donor in the films) concentration in the films. Thus the free carrier concentration decreases badly. This is the main mechanism responsible for the high resistivity.

Conductive Hierarchical Hairy Fibers for Highly Sensitive,Stretchable, and Water‐Resistant Multimodal Gesture‐Distinguishable Sensor,VR Applications

Conductive fibers, which are highly adaptable to the morphologies of the human body, are attractive for the development of wearable systems, smart clothing, and textronics to detect various biological signals and human motions. A fiber‐based conductive sensor interconnected with hierarchical microhairy architectures, exhibiting remarkable stretchability (<200%) and sensitivity for various stimuli (pressure, stretching, and bending), is developed. For distinguishability of multiple gestures, two hierarchical hairy conductive fibers are twisted to fabricate a fiber‐type sensor, which monitors distinct waveforms of electrical signals retrieved from pressure, stretching, and bending. This sensor is highly robust under repeated appliances of external stimuli over multiple cyclic tests of various modes (<2200 cycles for each stimulus). Upon formation of a self‐assembled monolayer, it exhibits stable performance even under wet conditions. For practical applications, this sensor can be weaved into a smart glove to demonstrate a pressure and gesture‐discernible wearable controller for virtual reality (VR) interface, shedding light on advances in wearable electronics with medical and healthcare functionalities and VR systems.
