摘要: The electrochemical preparation of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) is conducted in liquid crystal (LC) electrolyte solution with nematic (N), cholesteric (Ch*), and smectic A (SmA) phases under a magnetic field. polymer imprints the molecular arrangement LC during polymerisation process. oriented polymers thus obtained displays optical texture characteristics that resemble those solution. Especially, visualization SmA domain through PEDOT fibrils achieved. alignment produces linear polarisation for polymers. PEDOTs prepared exhibit good reproducible electroactivity. present electropolymerisation field affords films polarised electrochromism.
