Electrically conductive nanofiber is well known as an excellent nanostructured material for its outstanding performances. In this work, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)-coated polyvinyl alcohol-graphene oxide (PVA-GO)-conducting nanofibers were fabricated via a combined method using electrospinning and electropolymerization techniques. During electrospinning, the concentration of PVA-GO...

The AuNPs/PEDOT nanocomposite consisting of poly(3,4-ethylendioxythiophene) and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) can be easily synthesized on electrode surface. It was studied to develop a new NaClO sensor with improved performance with respect to bare electrode and to pure metallic (AuNPs) modified electrodes. This nanocomposite can be performed by electrochemical co-deposition using ionic liquid 1-bu...

The thermoelectric properties of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)-based materials have attracted attention recently because of their remarkable electrical conductivity, power factor, and figure of merit. In this review, we summarize recent efforts toward improving the thermoelectric properties of PEDOT-based materials. We also discuss thermoelectric measurement techniques and several un...

In this work, we have developed a thermal sensor based on poly(3,4 ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nano lms as thermoelectric material. The PEDOT nano lms have been synthesized by the electrochemical polymerization method. The thicknesses of the lms were around 120 nm. The doping level of PEDOT was controlled by chemical reduction using hydrazine. The achieved Seebeck coefficient is 40 μV/K. A ...

The electrical transport and chemical sensing properties of individual multisegmented Au-poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT)-Au nanowires have been investigated. Temperature dependent conductivity measurements show that different charge transport mechanisms influence these properties in two types of PEDOT nanowires. Charge transport in PEDOT/poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid) (PSS) nanowires is i...

The conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) has shown promise as air electrode in renewable energy technologies like metal-air batteries and fuel cells. PEDOT is based on atomic elements of high abundance and is synthesized at low temperature from solution. The mechanism of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) over chemically polymerized PEDOT:Cl still remains controversial with ...

In this study, we report the development of all-solution-processed multifunctional organic bioelectronics, comprising reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and dexamethasone 21-phosphate disodium salt (DEX) drug loaded poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) microelectrode arrays on indium tin oxide glass, that can be used to manipulate human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) spreading morphology on rGO mic...

A stable aqueous dispersion of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanorods stabilized by graphene oxide (GO) has been successfully prepared via interface polymerization of EDOT in the presence of GO for the first time. The non-covalent functionalization of PEDOT by GO leads to a PEDOT-GO dispersion that can be stable for several days without the observation of any floating or precipitated...

We report the synthesis of ultrafine S nanoparticles with diameter 10 ~ 20 nm via a membrane-assisted precipitation technique. The S nanoparticles were then coated with conducting poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) to form S/PEDOT core/shell nanoparticles. The ultrasmall size of S nanoparticles facilitates the electrical conduction and improves sulfur utilization. The encapsulation of co...
