TL;DR: Reducing dopant volume is found to be as important as optimizing carrier concentration when maximizing ZT in OSCs, and this stands in sharp contrast to ISCs, for which these parameters have trade-offs.
Abstract: The conversion efficiency of heat to electricity in thermoelectric materials depends on both their thermopower and electrical conductivity. It is now reported that, unlike their inorganic counterparts, organic thermoelectric materials show an improvement in both these parameters when the volume of dopant elements is minimized; furthermore, a high conversion efficiency is achieved in PEDOT:PSS blends.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the stability requirements on electrode potentials of n-type doped conducting polymers and compared the predictions with experimental data on stability of polymers, and showed that an electrode potential of about 0 to + 0.5 V (SCE) is required for stable polymers.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of gas sensors fabricated by using conducting polymers such as polyaniline (PAni), polypyrrole (PPy) and poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) as the active layers has been reviewed.
Abstract: The gas sensors fabricated by using conducting polymers such as polyaniline (PAni), polypyrrole (PPy) and poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) as the active layers have been reviewed. This review discusses the sensing mechanism and configurations of the sensors. The factors that affect the performances of the gas sensors are also addressed. The disadvantages of the sensors and a brief prospect in this research field are discussed at the end of the review.
