Thermoelectric Properties of Solution-Processed n-Doped Ladder-Type Conducting Polymers.

چکیده
Ladder-type "torsion-free" conducting polymers (e.g., polybenzimidazobenzophenanthroline (BBL)) can outperform "structurally distorted" donor-acceptor polymers (e.g., P(NDI2OD-T2)), in terms of conductivity and thermoelectric power factor. The polaron delocalization length is larger in BBL than in P(NDI2OD-T2), resulting in a higher measured polaron mobility. Structure-function relationships are drawn, setting material-design guidelines for the next generation of conducting thermoelectric polymers.

Thermoelectric properties of conducting polymers
According to different sources, from forty to sixty percent of the overall energy generated in the world today is squandered in waste heat. The existing energy conversion technologies are either close to their efficiency limits or too costly to justify their implementation. Therefore, the development of new technological approaches for waste heat recovery is highly demanded. The field of thermo...
متن کاملStructurally-driven Enhancement of Thermoelectric Properties within Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) thin Films
UNLABELLED Due to the rising need for clean energy, thermoelectricity has raised as a potential alternative to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. Specifically, thermoelectric devices based on polymers could offer an efficient path for near-room temperature energy harvesters. Thus, control over thermoelectric properties of conducting polymers is crucial and, herein, the structural, electrical an...
متن کاملSynthesis of Polyaniline/Polyamide composites as membrane and investigation of its properties
Practical applications of conducting polymers such as polyaniline as membranes are particulary limitedbecause of their poor mechanical properties. However by mixing polyaniline with some conventional insulatingpolymers such as nylon and preparation composite films through solvent casting or blending, it seems to be asuitable way in order to increase the mechanical properties of the conducting p...
متن کاملThermoelectric, transport, and magnetic properties of the polaron semiconductor FexCr3ÀxSe4
The series of compounds FexCr32xSe4, with 0<x<3, has been prepared and various thermoelectric properties measured from 5 to 900 K. Unlike most thermoelectric materials that are band semiconductors with high carrier mobilities, FexCr32xSe4 are polaronic semiconductors with Hall mobility values, over 100 times smaller. Nevertheless, FexCr32xSe4 has a surprisingly high thermoelectric figure of mer...
متن کاملInkjet-printed flexible organic thin-film thermoelectric devices based on p- and n-type poly(metal 1,1,2,2-ethenetetrathiolate)s/polymer composites through ball-milling.
In this article, we put forward a simple method for the synthesis of thermoelectric (TE) composite materials. Both n- and p-type composites were obtained by ball-milling the insoluble and infusible metal coordination polymers with other polymer solutions. The particle size, film morphology and composition were characterized by dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, transmission...
