Mixed Ionic–Electronic Conduction in Binary Polymer Nanoparticle Assemblies

Abstract: transistors. [5] Polymer-based MIECs contain two principal components, one for electronic conduction and the other for ionic conduction. Each of these components should meet the molecular packing requirements for charge transport and both components should arrange in cocontinuous morphologies with percolation pathways for charge transport in three dimensions. Yet, achieving such structures relevant for MIECs has not been straightforward. At present, several different strategies are used to design and fabricate… Show more

“…In the case that any of the electronic or ionic transport is mediated by the presence of a secondary pathway in a MIEC, generally associated to grain boundaries or depleted regions, as we discuss before, a second (or ) parallel combination connected in series with R e (or R i ), respectively, could be useful to fit the total impedance response, with associated pathway represented by a zig-zag line in Figure 2B (Huggins, 2002 ). In the recent literature, both the inclusion and exclusion of this second (or ) parallel combination in biphasic polymeric MIECs have been observed, depending mainly on the electronic- and ionic-conducting phase concentration or microstructural differences (Patel et al, 2012 ; Renna et al, 2017 ). In the particular case of hOI -MIECs, the second contribution (and probably a third contribution) to ionic or electronic transport could be present due to the mere existence of the organic–inorganic interphase, as shown in Figure 2C .…”

“…Impedance spectroscopy was conducted to further study the electrical conductivity of the films with the aim to isolate ionic from electronic conductivity. The use of gold to make electrical contacts allowed the separation of ions from electrons with the change in applied frequency. , Figure a shows the Nyquist plot obtained for P­(BzMA- stat - n BA)/GO/LS (5 wt %) (Nyquist plots for other films are presented in Figure S7, Supporting Information). The negative imaginary y -axis ( Z ″) observed at high frequencies in the Nyquist plot can be ascribed to the magnetization of wires inside the cables (connecting the films to the potentiostat).…”

“…These studies highlight the complexity of mixed ionic–electronic conductivity in composites and the importance of carefully considering the intrinsic properties of the components when designing a hybrid composite. It is to be noted that isolating ionic from electronic conductivity in hybrid composites is not trivial and requires the combination of complex electrochemical techniques, typically involving the use of blocking electrodes (stainless steel and gold as ion blockers and Nafion as an electron blocker) during impedance measurements. , …”

“…More recently, the field of organic electronics which utilizes π-conjugated small molecules and polymers as electronic conductors has experienced tremendous growth. Compared to traditional silicon-based electronics, organic electronics offer advantages of low cost processability, mechanical flexibility, biocompatibility, and nearly limitless capacity to tailor the physical properties via facile chemical design. Together with the expansion of the organic electronics field, there have been growing interests in developing organic materials such as polymeric or liquid crystal (LC) systems , with mixed electronic/ionic conducting properties that couple the electronic conduction of the π-conjugated moieties with other ionic conduction moieties.…”

“…Given their enormous potential, understanding the structure–processing–transport relationships in organic mixed conductors are of keen scientific and technological interests. Until now, only a few structure–mixed conduction studies have been performed on organic mixed conductors, and most of them only focus on polymeric systems. Understanding fundamental mixed conduction in conjugated polymers, however, is not straightforward due to the complex semicrystalline structures that make both structure characterization and simulation challenging . Compared to polymeric systems, LCs hold advantages of simple assembly and structural reorganization because of their intrinsic fluidity.…”
