    Impedance Spectroscopy of N-Substituted Oligo-Oxyethylene Polypyrrole Films
    (John Wiley & Sons inc, 2008) Cihaner, Atilla; Onal, Ahmet M.
    The electrochemical properties of neutral (dedoped) and oxidized (doped) poly(1,11-bis(1,1-pyrrole)-3,6,9-trioxaundecane) (poly-I) film electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. Poly-I was deposited on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) from acetonitrile solution containing 5.0 x 10(-3) M 1,11-bis(1,1-pyrrole)-3,6,9-trioxaundecane (I) and 0.1 M LiClO4 supporting electrolyte. Doped poly-I exhibits a single semicircle in its complex-capacitance plots, indicating a single dominant ion transport process, together with high capacitance values. These features make this polymer film a candidate for an energy storage material. Also, poly-I can be a candidate as a sensory material for the detection of Ag+ based on impedance parameters.

    Anodic Polymerization of 2,5-Di in Ethanol
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2007) Icli, Merve; Cihaner, Atilla; Cihaner, Atilla; Oenal, Ahmet A.; Cihaner, Atilla; Chemical Engineering; Chemical Engineering
    Poly(2,5-di-(2-thienyl)-furan) (PSOS) was synthesized via anodic polymerization of 2,5-di-(2-thienyl)-furan (SOS) in ethanol solution containing 0.2 M LiClO4 as supporting electrolyte. The electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties were investigated using electroanalytical and UV-vis spectroscopic techniques, respectively. The band gap of the polymer film was found as 2.22 eV and the film was successfully switched between black oxidized state and orange neutral state. Fluorescence and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies were also performed. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
