PEDOT is the most popularly used conductive polymer due to its high conductivity, good physical and chemical stability, excellent optical transparency, and the capabilities of easy doping and solution processing. Based on the advantages above, PEDOT has been widely used in various devices for energy conversion and storage, and bio-sensing. The synthesis method of PEDOT is very important as it brings different properties which determine its applications. In this mini review, we begin with a brief overview of recent researches in PEDOT. Then, the synthesis methods of PEDOT are summarized in detail, including chemical polymerization, electrochemical polymerization, and transition metal-mediated coupling polymerization. Finally, research directions in acquiring high-quality PEDOT are discussed and proposed.
聚(3,4-乙撑二氧噻吩)(PEDOT)是最常用的导电聚合物,因为它具有高导电性、良好的物理和化学稳定性、出色的光学透明度,以及易于掺杂和溶液加工的能力。基于上述优点,PEDOT已广泛应用于各种能量转换与存储以及生物传感设备中。PEDOT的合成方法非常重要,因为它会带来不同的性质,而这些性质决定了其应用。在这篇小型综述中,我们首先简要概述PEDOT的近期研究。然后,详细总结了PEDOT的合成方法,包括化学聚合、电化学聚合和过渡金属介导的偶联聚合。最后,讨论并提出了获得高质量PEDOT的研究方向。
