General description

3,4-Propylenedioxythiophene (PRODOT) is a conductive polymer that forms a π-conjugated system. It has good electrochromic properties with high conductivity and surface electroactivity. It forms a thin film by using layer by layer (LBL) technique and spin coating.[1][2]

Application

PRODOT can be used as a conjugated polymer in the fabrication of dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), sensors and electrochromic materials.[2][3][4]

We vapor print conformal conjugated polymer electrodes directly onto living plants and use these electrodes to probe the health of actively growing specimens using bioimpedance spectroscopy. Vapor-printed polymer electrodes, unlike their adhesive thin-film counterparts, do not delaminate from microtextured living
