Abstract |
Results of optical absorption and electrical conductivity measurements of solution-doped poly-3-octylthiophene (P3OT) films were studied. Chloroform solutions of P3OT were doped with the organic electron-acceptors, 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ); and with the inorganic electron acceptor, ferric chloride. Charge transfer was observed in P3OT solutions doped with FeCl3 and DDQ. TCNQ-doped solutions showed no optical evidence of charge transfer. Thin films of doped P3OT were examined at various doping levels. Results are discussed in relation to the electrochemical properties of the prepared films. Usefulness lies in the ability to design and tailor new chemical sensor films which are responsive to various analytes of interest and importance to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, based on the analytes' electrochemical characteristics. |
