The rectifying parameters of Al/PS-PANI/Au cell were determined to be gamma = 1.8x10(1) similar to 1.0x10(5) for the rectifying ratio at 3V, n = 3 similar to 12 for the ideal factor, j(0) = 8.0x10(-5) similar to 5.6x10(-2) mA/cm(2) for the reversed saturated current density, and phi(0) = 0.67 similar to 0.83 V for the barrier height, respectively. The best rectifying heterojunction diode made between PANI and n-type PS with higher rectifying factor (gamma = 1.0x10(5) at 3V), output current (>1500 mA/cm(2) at 3V) and lower ideal factor (n = 3.3) was obtained by preventing the oxidation of PS before evaporating Al electrode.展开更多

The electrostatic adherence between the PAni molecules and the bacteria may play a very important role for the antibacterial reaction of the PAni. As a result of our investigation, conducting PAni and its composites/blends are believed to be useful as a new type of antibacterial agent, self-clean as well as multifunctional material for improving the human health and living environment.展开更多

The formation of PANI/Ag nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, FTIR, TEM, UV-vis spectroscopy. The XRD patterns indicated that the crystalline phase of Ag is cubic with crystallite size of 93 nm. The TEM image shows that the Ag nanoparticles are well dispersed in the polyaniline matrix. Optical measurements show that the value of optical band gap of nanocomposite is lower than that of pure PANI. The DC-, AC-conductivities, dielectric permittivity (ε') and dielectric loss (ε'') of (PANI/Ag) nanocomposite and pure PANI have been measured in the temperature range from 303 to 723 K and frequency range from 10 to 103 kHz. The electrical conductivity of the (PANI/Ag) nanocomposite is higher than pure PANI. Temperature variation of frequency exponents in this blend suggests that AC-conductivity is attributed to correlated barrier hopping mechanism. At all frequencies, the ε' value for (PANI/Ag) nanocomposite is higher than that for pure one. The higher dielectric constant of the PANI/Ag nanocomposite indicates their better ability to store electric potential energy under the influence of alternative electric field.展开更多

An isotropy in conductivity for stretched salt form of PANI was observed.For salt film of PANI, the Ⅰ-Ⅴ curve obeys Ohm's law, which shows a typical metal behavior, however, for base film or film with low protonation state, it can be explained by Space Charge Limited Current (SCLC). It is also found that the Ⅰ-Ⅴ curve of base film of PANI is independent of the work function of electrodes and the polymerization temperature.展开更多
