Synthesis of electrically conducting organic polymers: halogen derivatives of polyacetylene, (CH)x

TLDR
When silvery films of the semiconducting polymer, trans polyacetylene, (CH)x, are exposed to chlorine, bromine, or iodine vapour, uptake of halogen occurs, and the conductivity increases markedly (over seven orders of magnitude in the case of iodine) to give silvery or silvery-black films, some of which have a remarkably high conductivity at room temperature.
Abstract
When silvery films of the semiconducting polymer, trans‘polyacetylene’, (CH)x, are exposed to chlorine, bromine, or iodine vapour, uptake of halogen occurs, and the conductivity increases markedly (over seven orders of magnitude in the case of iodine) to give, depending on the extent of halogenation, silvery or silvery-black films, some of which have a remarkably high conductivity at room temperature.

Halogenated conjugated molecules for ambipolar field-effect transistors and non-fullerene organic solar cells

TL;DR: A series of halogenated conjugated molecules, containing F, Cl, Br and I, were easily prepared via Knoevenagel condensation and applied in field effect transistors and organic solar cells as discussed by the authors.

Light-triggered self-construction of supramolecular organic nanowires as metallic interconnects

TL;DR: This work describes the self-assembly of supramolecular organic nanowires between two metallic electrodes, from a solution of triarylamine derivative, under the simultaneous action of light and electric field triggers, revealing an intrinsic metallic behaviour.

Polyethylenedioxythiophene coatings for humidity, temperature and strain sensing polyamide fibers

TL;DR: In this paper, conductive polyamide fibers were prepared by impregnating their fabric in an aqueous dispersion of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene-poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT-PSS).

Preparation and morphology of as-prepared and highly stretch-aligned polyacetylene

TL;DR: The macroscopic morphology of as-prepared polyacetylene depends on the concentration of the catalyst system, and the average fibril diameter of 200 A may depend on the polymerization conditions.

Application of conducting polymers to wound care and skin tissue engineering: A review.

TL;DR: Results indicated that PANI and PPy, two CPs that have been most extensively studied across a range of applications, including biological, were also most frequently used in wound dressings and hydrogels, and P Py was most commonly applied to skin tissue scaffolds.
