The electrochemical deformation behaviors of the PPy actuators were investigated in aqueous solutions of an electrolyte, lithium bis (trifluoromethanesulphonyl) imide (LiTFSI) or sodium chloride (NaCl), containing different concentrations of methanol. The actuating strain of approximately 9% was achieved when the actuator was driven by a potential between –1 and 1 V with the potential sweep rate of 10 mV/s corresponding to 0.0025 Hz in the LiTFSI electrolyte containing 40% to 50% of methanol under a load stress of 0.3 MPa. However, the PPy actuator could not catch up with the higher frequency. On the other hand, the PPy actuator caught up with the potential sweep up to 0.1 Hz in the NaCl solutions with a methanol concentration between 40% and 60% with the expense of the actuating strain to approximately 1%.展开更多

Its thermal and electrochemical properties were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, ac impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammertry respectively. The results indicated that the structure symmetry of the molecule was depressed and the extent of charges delocalization was expanded, because of introducing oxygen atom of differential electronegativity in OZO molecule. DSC analysis showed that the LiTFSI-OZO molten salt has the excellent thermal stability and its eutectic temperature is below about 223.15 K. Meanwhile, the conductivity of LiTFSI-OZO molten salt at a molar ratio of 1∶4.5 is 0.75×10 -3 S/cm at 298.15 K and 3.50×10 -3 S/cm at 333.15 K. CV analysis showed that the electrochemical window of the sample is about 4 V.展开更多

To achieve enough conductivity and effective hole extraction, spiro-OMe TAD, one of the most frequently used HTL in optoelectronic devices, often needs chemical doping with a lithium compound(LiTFSI). However, the lithium salt dopant induces crystallization and has a negative impact on the performance and lifetime of the device due to its hygroscopic nature. Here, we provide an easy method for creating a gel by mixing a natural small molecule additive(thioctic acid, TA) with spiro-OMe TAD. We discover that gelation effectively improves the compactness of resultant HTL and prevents moisture and oxygen infiltration. Moreover, the gelation of HTL improves not only the conductivity of spiro-OMe TAD, but also the operational robustness of the devices in the atmospheric environment. In addition, TA passivates the perovskite defects and facilitates the charge transfer from the perovskite layer to HTL. As a consequence, the optimized PSCs based on the gelated HTL exhibit an improved PCE(22.52%) with excellent device stability.展开更多
