Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 25A Novel Conducting Polymer Based on Terthienyl System Bearing Strong Electron-Withdrawing Substituents and Its Electrochromic Device Application(Elsevier Science Sa, 2008) Asil, Demet; Cihaner, Atilla; Algi, Fatih; Onal, Ahmet M.A novel conducting polymer bearing strong electron-withdrawing substituents (EWS) directly attached to the 3,4-positions of the thiophene ring was synthesized by electrochemical polymerization of diethyl 2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)thiophene-3,4-dicarboxylate (SSS-Diester). The polymer (PSSS-Diester) was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, FT-IR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The polymer has a reversible redox process and demonstrates a stable electrochromic behavior: reddish orange in the neutral state, brown in the intermediate state and green in the oxidized state. Optical density and response time of the dual-type electrochromic device based on PSSS-Diester were found to be 0.23 and 0.6 s at 623 nm, respectively. It is also noteworthy that the device shows good environmental and redox stability (i.e. 94% of the optical activity of the device retained after 500th switch). (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V.

Furthermore, selective, clear and reversible voltammetric responses of the conjugated polymer (PSNS-Crown) film towards the alkali series Li+, Na+ and K+ in both neat water and organic media (ethanol) are described.

The corresponding polymer (PSNS-1-NAPH) was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, FT-IR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The polymer has a very well-defined and reversible redox process in both organic and aqueous solutions. Furthermore, it shows stable electrochromic behavior; yellow in the neutral state, green in the intermediate state and violet in the oxidized state. PSNS-1-NAPH is soluble in common solvents. Although SNS-1-NAPH is almost nonfluorescent, its polymer is a yellow and/or green light emitter. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

Characterization was carried out using cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis and F-FAR spectroscopic techniques. Also, an electrochromic device based on PSNSF was studied, which exhibits high coloration efficiency (CE), high redox stability (retaining 98.6% of its optical activity after 4000th switch) and very low response time (less than 0.5 s).
