[Abstract]

The charge density in electrochemically active polymers can be modulated over a wide range by ion insertion. In inorganic materials this process is slow and energetically costly. Polymers on the other hand can insert ions with minimal strain. Furthermore, the soft nature of the material and its microstructure alllows fast ion modulation. As a result of this combination, polymer-based “iontronics”, ie devices relying on the modulation of electronic properties via electrolytes, may be able to reach frequencies well into MHz and possibly into the GHz regime. I will show examples of fast iontronic devcies, modulating electronic properties within ~10ns with accompanying structural characterization to explain their operation. I will then discuss other polymer-electrolyte systems to gain a broader understanding of how ion and electrolyte insertion affect the microstructure of organic mixed conductors.

Polymer-based iontronics could develop into a technology that takes advantage of the features of conjugated polymers (e.g. a relatively open structure) to enable unique functionalities such as deep optical modulation or brain-like computation.
