Chemical synthesis of PEDOT nanofibers

Xinyu Zhang, Alan G. MacDiarmid and Sanjeev K. Manohar

A one-step, room-temperature method is described to chemically synthesize bulk quantities of microns long, 100–180 nm diameter nanofibers of electrically conducting poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT) in the form of powders, or as optically transparent, substrate-supported films using a V2O5 seeding approach.
