Abstract
Novel poly (selenophene-co-3-methylthiophene) was successfully achieved by directly electrochemical oxidation of the monomer mixtures of selenophene and 3-methylthiophene (3MeT) in boron trifluoride diethyl etherate. The effect of monomer concentration ratios on the copolymerization were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The structures of as-prepared copolymers were characterized by UV-vis and infrared spectroscopy. The conductivity and thermoelectric measurements revealed the incorporation of 3MeT into the polyselenophene (PSe) chain improved significantly the conductivity and thermoelectric property of PSe.
