摘要

Abstract

In this study

we demonstrate a novel method for fabricating polythiophene patterns

i.e

cylindrical holes and cylinders

through blending of a thermally curable polythiophene carrying with tertiary ester groups (PT-

tert

-ESTER) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)

followed by thermal conversion of the PT-

tert

-ESTER to an insoluble polythiophene

via

low-temperature cleavage of the tertiary ester groups and removal of the PMMA component

via

ultraviolet degradation. We show that the surface polarity of substrates

the mass ratio of PT-

tert

-ESTER to PMMA in the blend solutions as well as the concentration of the blend solutions strongly influence the formation of the polythiophene patterns. Cylindrical holes are more readily formed on less polar substrates when a PT-

tert

-ESTER dominated blend solution is used

while cylinders are more readily formed on more polar substrates when a PMMA dominated blend solution is used. Moreover

the diameters of both the cylindrical holes and the cylinders decrease as the PT-

tert

-ESTER concentration is increased in the respective ranges of the PT-

tert

-ESTER/PMMA ratios where the patterns are formed. Grazing incident X-ray diffraction data have indicated that the patterning of the PT-

tert

-ESTER component in the blend films improves the crystallinity of PT-

tert

-ESTER as well as the molecular packing of the insoluble polythiophene in the resultant patterned polythiophene films.
