ABSTRACTNanoporous composite films of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and either polypyrrole (PPy) or poly(3-methylthiophene) (P3MeT) were grown using an electrochemical polymerization technique in which the nanotubes and conducting polymer were deposited simultaneously. The concentration and dispersion of MWNTs in the polymerization electrolyte was found to have a significant effect on the thickness of polymer coated on each MWNT and hence the loading of MWNTs in the films produced. It has been shown that for an increasing concentration of MWNTs in the polymerization electrolyte, the thickness of polymer coated on each MWNT decreases. This relationship made it possible to minimize ionic diffusion distances within the nanoporous MWNT-PPy films produced, reducing their electrical and ionic resistance and increasing their capacitance relative to similarly prepared pure PPy films.

Abstract The transport mechanism of organic materials is still far away from being well understood and controlled although conducting polymers have been discovered since 1977. It is rare to see conducting polyers possessing high bipolar (p- and n-type) electrical conductivities within a single bulk doped organic polymer without the assistant of gate voltage. Here, we report a novel approach to provide high performance n-type materials by p-type doping. More importantly, the bipolar electrical conductivities of the donor-acceptor conducting polymer are high, resulting high bipolar power factors among the solution-processable ambipolar D-A copolymers. A fully organic p-n junction is created in a planar film, exhibiting a high rectification ratio of 2 x 102 at +5 V with a high current density of 3 A/cm2. Structural and spectroscopic tests have been performed to provide a fundamental understanding of the polarity switching mechanism. The results open the opportunity of making p- and n-type modules with a single conducting polymer for future modern organic electronics.

Abstract Conducting polymer films produced by electropolymerization technique are highly conductive, simple, and suitable for use especially in electronic devices. An attempt has been made to produce polypyrrole-poly(vinyl alcohol) (PPy-PVA) conducting polymer composite films using 0.1 m p-toluene sulfonate dopant at a potential of 1.2 V (vs. standard calomel electrode) on indium tin oxide glass electrode. The potential application of the prepared PPy-PVA conducting polymer composite films as an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding material has been investigated in the present study. The EMI shielding effectiveness of PPy-PVA composite films prepared from different experimental conditions was analyzed in the microwave frequency range of 8–12 GHz. The shielding effectiveness of 45.67–35.7 dB has been demonstrated by PPy-PVA conducting polymer composite films, which appears to be very attractive in any EMI shielding applications where a minimum shielding effectiveness of 35 dB is required.
