Abstract

The memory effect in poly(4,4′-dialkyl -2,2′-bithiophenes) (PDABTs) and poly(3-alkylthiophenes) (PATs) has been studied. A shift in the oxidation peak position and its intensity is much more pronounced in PDABTs than in PATs. The magnitude of this effect is associated with the difficulty of the dedoping of PDABTs in dynamic processes such as cyclic voltammetry. Thus, long wait times τ at the reduced state allow for better recovery of the residual charge.
