Abstract
Organic mixed ionic and electronic conductors (OMIECs) are an emerging class of materials that have been applied for a wide range of electrochemical applications. Due to the complexity inherent to the ionic-electroniccoupling, understanding the underlying mechanisms involved in the OMIEC operation is an exciting and very lively research field. In this work, we highlight the use of time-resolved Vis-NIR spectroelectrochemistry tocharacterize these materials. We discuss an example, where we show that by combining this tool with spectraldecomposition, we are able to understand fundamental aspects of the doping in an OMIEC film. The methodswe present here can be generalized and used to characterize any electrochromic material.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
