Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 31A New Low-Voltage Polymeric Electrochromic(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2010) Pamuk, Melek; Tirkes, Seha; Cihaner, Atilla; Algi, FatihDesign, synthesis, and properties of a novel donor-acceptor-donor type low-voltage-driven green polymeric electrochrome, P1, which is based on 8-(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-5-yl)-11-(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][l,4]dioxin-7-yl)acenaphtho[1,2-b]quinoxaline (1) are highlighted. It is noted that P1 has an ambipolar (n- and p-doping processes) character in 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate/dichloromethame solution and switches to a transmissive blue state upon oxidation. Furthermore, this new polymeric electrochromic candidate exhibits high redox stability, high coloration efficiency and/or contrast ratio, high percent transmittance (%T) and low response time (1.0 s) with a band gap of 1.10 eV-1.25 eV.

This electrochemically polymerized unique combination readily gives an electrochromic polymer with a narrow optical band gap (1.71 eV). The electrochrome exhibits purple color when neutralized and sky blue color when oxidized in a monomer-free electrolyte solution containing 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate dissolved in acetonitrile. Spectroscopic and electrochemical features of the electroactive polymer electrochrome indicate that it is a promising candidate for electrochromic device and display applications.
