Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 25A Neutral State Yellow To Navy Polymer Electrochrome With Pyrene Scaffold(Elsevier Science Bv, 2011) Icli-Ozkut, Merve; Cihaner, Atilla; Oztas, Zahide; Algi, Fatih; Cihaner, Atilla; Cihaner, Atilla; Içi-Özkut, Merve; Chemical Engineering; Chemical EngineeringA new pyrene based soluble polymer, namely poly(3,3-didecyl-6-(1-(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxepin-6-yl) pyren-6-yl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxepine), P5, which is synthesized by both chemical and electrochemical methods, is highlighted. The polymer shows both electrochromic and fluorescent properties (the emission of yellow (545 nm) and yellowish green light (524 nm) in solid state and in THF solution, respectively). It is noteworthy that P5 has a specific optical band gap (2.2 eV) to reflect the yellow color in the neutral state. Furthermore, the optical and electrochemical features of the polymer were investigated. (C) 2011 Elsevier B. V.

It is noteworthy that 1,2-bis (5-(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxepin-6-yl)-2-methylthiophen-3-yl)cyclopent-1-ene can be efficiently switched between open and closed states by light in both solution and in the solid poly(methyl metacrylate) (PMMA) matrix. It is also found that the emission of this novel compound can be switched on and off upon irradiation.Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 31Donor-acceptor polymer electrochromes with cyan color: Effect of alkyl chain length on doping processes(Elsevier, 2012) Celikbilek, Ozden; Icli-Ozkut, Merve; Algi, Fatih; Onal, Ahmet M.; Cihaner, AtillaA new series of donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) type compounds consisting of dialkyl substituted 3,4-propylenedioxythiophene and benzothiadiazole units were synthesized and polymerized chemically and electrochemically to investigate the effect of alkyl chain length on the doping process of the conjugated polymers. It was found that the alkyl chain length plays a key role on both doping processes and the solubility of the polymer. It is also noteworthy that this new series of D-A-D electrochromes transmits or reflects the cyan color of the Cyan-Magenta-Yellow (CMY) color space in the neutral state which can be switched to transmissive grey when oxidized.
