Article Citation - WoS: 65Citation - Scopus: 67An Electrochromic and Fluorescent Polymer Based on 1-(1(Elsevier Science Sa, 2008) Cihaner, Atilla; Algi, FatihA novel polymer was synthesized by electrochemical polymerization of 1-(1-naphthyl)-2,5-di-2-thienyl-1H-pyrrole (SNS-1-NAPH). 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.

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.

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).

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.

It is observed that reversible redox behavior of poly(I-co-Py)s shifts to more positive potentials with the increasing amount of I in the comonomer mixture, indicating formation of a copolymer. It is also found that increasing the ratio of I in the comonomer mixture decreases the conductivity of the obtained polymer films. The dark electrical conductivity measurements in the temperature range of 300-100 K revealed the extrinsic type of conduction with activation energy values being in the range of 82.3-16.9 meV.
