Chiral conductive polymers as spin filters.

Biofunctionalized conductive polymers enable efficient CO2 electroreduction

Selective electrocatalysts are urgently needed for carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction to replace fossil fuels with renewable fuels, thereby closing the carbon cycle. To date, noble metals have achieved the best performance in energy yield and faradaic efficiency and have recently reached impressive electrical-to-chemical power conversion efficiencies. However, the scarcity of precious metals makes ...

Conductive Polymers: Electroplating of Organic Films

Electron-conductive polymers were first reported in 1971 by Shirakawa and co-workers [1]. They synthesized conducting polyacetylene and found that it had a considerably high conductivity relative to other organic compounds, 10 S cm 1 [1–3]. Since 1971, various conducting polymers and their synthesis mechanisms have been studied actively by many researchers [4]. The conductivities of these polym...

DFT studies of all fluorothiophenes and their radical cations as candidate monomers for conductive polymers

In this paper, electronic, structural, and spectroscopic properties of mono-, di-, tri-, andtetrafluorothiophenes and their radical cations are studied using the density functional theory andB3LYP method with 6-311++G** basis set. Also the effects of the number and position of thesubstituent on the electrochemical properties of the thiophene ring have been studied usingoptimized structures obta...
