Reynolds et al. [279] reported electrochromic behavior of self-doped propanesulfonated poly(3,4-propylenedioxypyrrole). The polymer has not only shown interesting electrochromic properties in the visible, but, upon doping, also exhibits a very strong absorption in the near infrared with changes in transmittance up to 97 %, extending the use of the polymer as the active layer in a visible/near infrared switchable device. Viinikanoja etal. [280] reported the electrochromism and pH-induced halochromism of self-doped poly(3-(3 -thienyloxy)propanesulfonate) multilayers.

Chen et al. [24] studied the structure and effect of the side chain length on the doping level of self-doped poly(n-(3 -thienyl)alkanesulfonic acid)s with alkanes of carbon numbers 2, 6 and 10. They suggested that self-doping of poly(n-(3 -thienyl)alkanesulfonic acid)s is dependent on the side chain length (for details see Chapter 1 Section 1.4.3). In subsequent work, Chen et al. reported the irreversible thermal dedoping... 

The electrochemical synthesis of self-doped poly(3,4-ethylenedioxy-thiophene)-sulfonate in water without supporting electrolyte has been reported by Chevort et al. [30]. The monomer, sulfonated 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene, was synthesized by various steps as shown in Figure 4.13. The electrochemical polymerization in water resulted in the formation of soluble oligomers. However, the copolymer films of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)sulfonate could be prepared in water using an equimolar amount of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene without supporting electrolyte in the potential range of —1.4 to 1.2 V (vs...

The chemical synthesis of self-doped polythiophene was first reported by Ikenoue et al. [21]. They synthesized self-doped poly(3-(3 -thienyl)pro-panesulfonate) in aqueous media using ferric chloride as an oxidizing agent. The electrochemical polymerization of the monomer, 3-(3 -... 

Reynolds et al. [45] have prepared a water-soluble, self-doped poly(4-(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-fc]-[l,4]dioxin-2-yl-methoxy)-l-butanesulfonic acid, sodium salt) (PEDOT-S) (Figure 4.28) by chemical synthesis using ferric chloride in chloroform. The monomer, sulfonated 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene, was synthesized by following Chevrot et al. s synthesis method as shown in Figure 4.13 [30]. The electrochromic and hole-transporting multilayer films of PEDOT-S and poly(allylamine...
