论文摘要
在这项研究中,研究了用三氟甲磺酸盐(OTF)稳定的导电聚合物(聚(3,4-乙二基二苯乙烯)的薄膜中的跨平面电和热传输。我们通过导电原子力显微镜(C-AFM)探索它们的电性能,该特性揭示了高电导性纳米域的存在。通过空点扫描热显微镜(NP-STHM)测量跨平面方向的热导率:PEDOT:OTF确实表明了对热传输的不可忽略的电子贡献。我们进一步研究了通过处理后电导率与热导率之间的相关性:化学还原(DEOPING),目的是降低电荷载体浓度,从而使电导率和酸处理(过度兴奋剂)增加后者。从我们的测量值中,我们发现振动热电导率为0.34(+/- 0.04)WM-1 K-1。从线性依赖性或热导率与电子电导率(Widemann-Franz定律)的电子贡献,我们推断出洛伦兹(Lorenz)的数量是经典的Sommerfeld值6倍,如许多平面内热运输的有机材料中所观察到的。采用最近提出的分子Widemann-Franz定律,我们推断出0.53(+/- 0.06)EV的重组能量。
Cross-plane electrical and thermal transport in thin films of a conducting polymer (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), PEDOT) stabilized with trifluoromethanesulfonate (OTf) is investigated in this study. We explore their electrical properties by conductive atomic force microscopy (C-AFM), which reveals the presence of highly conductive nano-domains. Thermal conductivity in cross-plane direction is measured with Null-Point scanning thermal microscopy (NP-SThM): PEDOT:OTf indeed demonstrates non-negligible electronic contribution to the thermal transport. We further investigate the correlation between electrical and thermal conductivity by applying posttreatment: chemical reduction (de-doping) for the purpose of lowering charge carrier concentration and hence, electrical conductivity and acid treatment (over-doping) to increase the latter. From our measurements, we find a vibrational thermal conductivity of 0.34 (+/- 0.04) Wm-1 K-1. From the linear dependence or the electronic contribution of thermal conductivity vs. the electronic conductivity (Widemann-Franz law), we infer a Lorenz number 6 times larger than the classical Sommerfeld value as also observed in many organic materials for in-plane thermal transport. Applying the recently proposed molecular Widemann-Franz law, we deduced a reorganization energy of 0.53 (+/- 0.06) eV.
