Study on Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) Thin Film Vapour Phase-Polymerized with Iron(III)Tosylate on AcOH-Catalyzed 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane Self-Assembled Monolayer

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In this study, PEDOT thin films polymerized with Iron(III)tosylate (Fe(PTS)3) and grown on acetic acid-catalyzed 3- aminopropyltriethoxysilane self-assembled monolayer (APS-SAM) surfaces by VPP method have been investigated. PEDOT thin films were synthesized on APS self-assembled SiO2 wafer surface at two different concentrations (20 wt% and 40 wt%) and growth time (3 and 30 minutes), and then they were compared. PEDOT vapour phase-polymerized with 40 wt% Fe(PTS)3 oxidant completely formed a thin film on acetic acid-catalyzed APS-SAM surface while with 20 wt% Fe(PTS)3 did not at all. It means that the oxidant can be uniformly coated on acetic acid-catalyzed APS-SAM surface at the 40 wt% concentration, which gives rise to the uniform growth of PEDOT thin film on it.
