Improved Alignment of PEDOT:PSS Induced by in-situ Crystallization of “Green” Dimethylsulfone Molecules to Enhance the Polymer Thermoelectric Performance

Dimethylsulfone (DMSO2), a small organic molecule, was observed to induce the alignment of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) via in-situ crystallization in PEDOT:PSS mixture, which was verified by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffrac...
