| contents | The fabrication of hybrid materials consisting of nanoporous hosts with conductive polymers is a challenging task, since the extreme spatial confinement often conflicts with the stringent physico-chemical requirements for polymerization of organic constituents. Here, several low-threshold and scalable synthesis routes for such hybrids are presented. First, the electrochemical synthesis of composites based on mesoporous silicon (pore size of 7 nm) and the polymers PANI, PPy and PEDOT is discussed and validated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Polymer filling degrees of 74% are achieved. Second, the production of PEDOT/pSi hybrids, based on the solid-state polymerization (SSP) of DBEDOT to PEDOT is shown. The resulting amorphous structure of the nanopore-embedded PEDOT is investigated via in-situ synchrotron-based X-ray scattering. In addition, a twofold increase in the electrical conductivity of the hybrid compared to the porous silicon host is shown, making this system particularly promising for thermoelectric applications. |
