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

Reads0

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.

Enhanced electrochemical behavior and hydrophobicity of crystalline polyaniline@graphene nanocomposite synthesized at elevated temperature

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple route for the synthesis of graphene (GN) using an electrochemical method as well as its composite with polyaniline (Pani) was reported, and the resulting nanocomposite contained high crystalline regions due to the in-situ oxidative polymerization performed at elevated temperatures.

Biomimetic Structural Electrochemistry from Conducting Polymers: Processes, Charges, and Energies. Coulovoltammetric Results from Films on Metals Revisited

TL;DR: In this paper, voltam-metric and coulovoltammetric results using Pt electrodes coated with different polymers, in different solvents and salts, were explored by using a graphical tool to identify, separate and quantify the structural compo- nents of the reversible fi lm reactions together the potential domains and the charges involved in irreversible reactions.

All-2D Material Inkjet-Printed Capacitors: Toward Fully Printed Integrated Circuits

TL;DR: This work uses water-based and biocompatible graphene and hBN inks to fabricate all-2D material and inkjet-printed capacitors, and demonstrates an areal capacitance of 2.0 ± 0.3 nF cm-2 for a dielectric thickness of ∼3 μm and negligible leakage currents, averaged across more than 100 devices.
