Characteristics of Polythiophene Battery

Abstract

A secondary battery utilizing polythiophene films as cathode and anode active materials in an electrolyte of TBABF 4 /MeCN is studied. The cell potential, energy density and maximum power density (based on the weight of cathode and anode films) are observed to be 3.1 V, 93 Wh/kg and 89 kW/kg, respectively, for the dopant concentration of 24 mol%.
