چکیده
Electrochemical double layer supercapacitor cells were fabricated and tested using composite electrodes of activated carbon with carbon black and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), and an organic electrolyte 1M TEABF4/PC solution. The effect of PEDOT on the performance of the EDLC cells was explored and the cells were characterised by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge.

Highly conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) enwrapped Sb2S3 nanorods for flexible supercapacitors.
Composites of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole) or PEDOP and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) or PEDOT enwrapped Sb2S3 nanorods have been synthesized for the first time for use as supercapacitor electrodes. Hydrothermally synthesized Sb2S3 nanorods, several microns in length and 50-150 nm wide, offer high surface area and serve as a scaffold for coating conducting polymers, and are a viable altern...

Ultra-compressible electrodes with high electrochemical performance, reversible compressibility and extreme durability are in high demand in compression-tolerant energy storage devices. Herein, an ultra-compressible ternary composite was synthesized by successively electrodepositing poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and MnO2 into the superelastic graphene aerogel (SEGA). In SEGA/PEDOT/Mn...

Electrochemical in situ preparation and morphological characterization of inorganic redox material-organic conducting polymer coatings as thin films on platinum electrodes are presented. Composite inorganic-organic coatings consist of Prussian blue (PB) and [poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)] (PEDOT), and PEDOT organic polymers doped with ferricyanide (PEDOT-FeCN). The PEDOT coating deposited fr...
متن کاملFlexible metal-free counter electrode for dye solar cells based on conductive polymer and carbon nanotubes
The counter electrodes (CEs) for flexible dye solar cells (DSCs) are normally prepared by sputtering platinum on indium tin oxide (ITO) plastic substrate. However both ITO and platinum are expensive materials that need to be replaced with cheaper alternatives in large scale production of low-cost DSCs. We fabricated a flexible and completely carbon-based CE for DSCs based on electropolymerized ...
متن کاملPEDOT–CNT Composite Microelectrodes for Recording and Electrostimulation Applications: Fabrication, Morphology, and Electrical Properties
Composites of carbon nanotubes and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene, PEDOT) and layers of PEDOT are deposited onto microelectrodes by electropolymerization of ethylenedioxythiophene in the presence of a suspension of carbon nanotubes and polystyrene sulfonate. Analysis by FIB and SEM demonstrates that CNT-PEDOT composites exhibit a porous morphology whereas PEDOT layers are more compact. Accordi...
