Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is an organic semiconductor prepared by doping cationic poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) and poly(4-styrenesulfonate) anion. Its high electrical conductivity and good oxidation resistance make it suitable for electromagnetic shielding and noise suppression. PEDOT:PSS based polymeric films have a high transparency throughout the visible light spectrum and even in near IR and near UV regions, with virtually 100% absorption from 900-2000 nm. PEDOT provides the conduction properties and PSS forms a hydrated colloidal solution.

Application

Electrical conductivity measurements herewith reported were on a film deposited by spin-coating on a clean glass, then dried (130 °C for 15 minutes on a hotplate). The layer thickness was determined by scratching the layer and measuring the profile/height of the scratch by a stylus profilometer. Electrodes for the measurement were by evaporating metal contacts (four-point probes).

Ready-to-use high conductivity coating formulation.

Virtually 100% absorption from 900-2,000 nm. No absorption maximum from 400-800 nm. Conductive polymer blend.

PEDOT:PSS is an intrinsically conductive polymer (ICP) that can be coated on various substrates and nanostructures like fullerenes (C₆₀) to form composites with high electrochemical properties for applications like low-cost printed electronics, optoelectronics, and polymeric solar cells. It can be used as a conductive hydrogel with polyethylene glycol-diacrylate (PEG-DA) for potential applications in tissue engineering. PEDOT:PSS also finds use in other organic electronic applications like organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) and dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs).
