Photocurrent generation properties of electrochemically polymerized terthiophene-linked fullerene film

Electropolymerized Films of π‐Conjugated Polymers. A Tool for Surface Functionalization: A Brief Historical Evolution and Recent Trends

“…The benefit of this strategy is the well-controlled thickness at a nanometer scale of the electrodeposited film. Double-cable polymers of poly(thiophenes) containing pendant C 60 -fullerene groups was electrogenerated [237][238][239][240]. Polycarbazole derivatives appear among the more promising polymers for OPVs.…”

Investigation of Polycarbazoles Thin Films Prepared by Electrochemical Oxidation of Synthesized Carbazole Derivatives

“…The discovery of organic conducting polymers in Shirakawa's laboratory in the early 1970s and the demonstration by MacDiarmid et al of the semiconducting properties of polyacetylene (Shirakawa et al, 1977) paved the way for an intense research activity on these materials to exploit these conducting properties. Thus, over the last decades, other organic semiconducting polymers like polypyrrole, polyaniline, polythiophene, or polycarbazole have been gaining increasing interest, owing to their interesting physicochemical properties, for many different applications including flexible electronics (Savagatrup et al, 2014;Lee et al, 2018), optoelectronics (Ouyang et al, 2005;Akiyama et al, 2009;Cai et al, 2017), and energy storage devices (Mali et al, 2015;Bryan et al, 2016;Kausar, 2017).…”

Photochemical half-cells using mixture films of fullerene-ethylenediamine adduct microparticles and polythiophene

“…These unique electronic characteristics of fullerenes have attracted great attention. Recently, applications of fullerenes to a photoelectric conversion device [1][2][3], an organic solar cell [4][5][6], and an organic transistor [7] have been investigated intensively.…”
