Description

A novel self-doped water-soluble conducting polymer (S-PEDOT) was synthesized by oxidative polymerization of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) having an alkylsulfonate side chain. The S-PEDOT was completely dissolved in water. The weight average molecular weight (Mw) and molecular weight distribution were 22,400 g/mol and 15.4, respectively. The S-PEDOT was the paracrystalline polymer with the degree of crystallinity (Xc) and crystallite size (D100) of 68.2% and 7.1 nm, respectively. According to the values of sheet resistance (Rs = 1670~201 Ω/□) and total light transmittance (TT = 94.2~69.2%) of the S-PEDOT films with different thicknesses (d = 33~158 nm), the figure-of-merit (FOM) as a transparent electrode was found to be 4.1. It was also found that the electrical conductivity of the S-PEDOT film attained values as high as 315 S/cm.
