研究目的
To investigate the effects of different electrolytes on the formation and properties of PEDOT-graphene oxide composites through electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical analysis.
研究成果
PEDOT/GO composites exhibit electrolyte-dependent formation and properties. Films synthesized in ionic liquid show higher electroactivity and improved charge transfer compared to aqueous-synthesized films. In situ spectroelectrochemistry reveals that composite films in ionic liquid form only one type of charge carrier (polarons) during p-doping, unlike neat PEDOT which forms both polarons and bipolarons. Composite films also show shifts in optical properties and altered film appearance, indicating successful incorporation of graphene oxide and potential for tailored material design in optoelectronic applications.
研究不足
The study is limited to specific electrolytes (aqueous, acetonitrile, ionic liquid) and composite compositions. Interpretation of in-take of electrolyte ions based on in situ FTIR spectroelectrochemistry may be affected by film swelling and shrinking. Strong vibrations from water in aqueous electrolytes prevent analysis of electronic absorptions in FTIR spectra. Potential water impurities in ionic liquid dispersions could influence results.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employed potentiodynamic electropolymerization to synthesize PEDOT/GO composites in aqueous and ionic liquid electrolytes. Electrochemical characterization was performed using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Spectroelectrochemical analysis included in situ UV-Vis and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to monitor film formation, electronic properties, and charge carrier dynamics during p-doping.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Samples included PEDOT(PSS) and PEDOT(GO)(aq) films synthesized in aqueous solutions, and PEDOT(IL) and PEDOT(GO)(IL) films synthesized in ionic liquid [Bmim][BF4]. Graphene oxide was prepared by a modified Hummers method.

3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: Equipment included Autolab PGSTAT101 and IviumStat potentiostats, Cary 60 spectrophotometer, Bruker Vertex 70 spectrometer with Harrick Seagull accessory, and Leica EM ACE200 sputtering device. Materials included EDOT, KCl, TBA-BF4, acetonitrile, [Bmim][BF4], graphene oxide, Pt electrodes, ITO-coated quartz glass, and ZnSe hemisphere windows.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Films were electrosynthesized on Pt-minielectrodes, ITO glass, or Pt-sputtered ZnSe windows using specific potential ranges and scan rates. Electrochemical characterization involved cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy in various electrolytes. In situ spectroelectrochemistry was performed during polymerization and p-doping cycles, with spectra recorded at selected potential intervals.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data analysis involved interpreting cyclic voltammograms, Nyquist plots from impedance spectroscopy, UV-Vis absorbance spectra, and ATR-FTIR spectra to assess electroactivity, charge transfer, optical properties, and vibrational changes.
