Realization of commercial RGB-based polymer electrochromic-device applications can only be achieved by processable materials that possess three complementary colors in the reduced state and are transparent in the oxidized state. This report highlights the synthesis of the first processable green polymer with a transmissive oxidized state. The polymer revealed superior optical contrast in the visible region with fast switching times and robust stability. Hence, this material is the outstanding candidate for completion of RGB color space through commercial polymeric electrochromics.

A blue to highly transmissive soluble electrochromic polymer based on poly(3,4-propylenedioxyselenophene) with a high stability and coloration efficiency Ozkut, Merve Icli; Atak, Samed; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar; CİHANER, ATİLLA (2011-01-01) The optical and electrochemical properties of a regioregular and soluble alkylenedioxyselenophene-based electrochromic polymer, namely poly(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-selenopheno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxepine (PProDOS-C-10), which is synthesized by electrochemical polymerization, are highlighted. It is noted that this unique polymer has a low band gap (1.58 eV) and is exceptionally stable under ambient atmospheric conditions. Polymer films retain 97% of their electroactivity after 40 000 cycles. The percentage tran...
A neutral state green polymer with a superior transmissive light blue oxidized state Durmus, Asuman; Günbaş, Emrullah Görkem; Camurlu, Pinar; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2007-01-01) This report highlights the synthesis of only the second green polymer in the literature, which possesses superior properties over the first: a highly transmissive light blue color in the oxidized state with high optical contrast and excellent switching properties.
Novel donor-acceptor type polymers towards excellent neutral state green polymeric materials for realization of RGB based electrochromic device applications Günbaş, Görkem Emrullah; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2007) Polymers having one of the three complementary colors (red, green, and blue) in the reduced state and high transmissivity in the oxidized state are key materials towards use in electrochromic devices and displays. Although many neutral state red and blue polymers were reported up to date, neutral state green polymeric materials appear to be limited. For potential application of electrochromic materials in display technologies, one should have to create the entire color spectrum and this can be only achieved...
A Diverse-Stimuli Responsive Chemiluminescent Probe with Luminol Scaffold and Its Electropolymerization Asil Alptekin, Demet; Algi, Fatih; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (Wiley, 2010-10-01) A diverse-stimuli responsive chemiluminescent system, SNS-Lum, and its electropolymerization to give PSNS-Lum, which is the first example of conjugated polymers with pendant luminol arms inducing chemiluminescence in the presence of super oxide radical anion under neutral conditions, are highlighted.
A NEW DIFUNCTIONAL ANIONIC INITIATOR SOLUBLE IN NONPOLAR-SOLVENTS NUGAY, T; KUCUKYAVUZ, S (Wiley, 1992-01-01) The reaction between 1,5-diethenylnaphthalene and sec-butyllithium produces a new difunctional organolithium initiator which is soluble in non-polar solvents and effective in the synthesis of styrene-isoprene-styrene triblock copolymer. Monomodal molecular weight distributions are observed for block copolymers and styrene homopolymers. The microstructure of polyisoprene blocks is similar to those polymers initiated by butyllithium in the same solvent.
