Differently linked carbazole derivatives possessing pyrene and selenophene moieties were electrochemically investigated. Cyclic voltammetric as well as differential pulse voltammetric studies demonstrated that they display comparatively low oxidation potentials. One-step cyclic voltammetric process was used for the preparation of their highly dimensional, stable and electroactive polymers. The electrodeposited polymers displayed unusual properties upon electrochemical doping that may help tailoring the dimensional features of these polymers. The electrodeposited polymers were investigated by electrochemical and optical tools and correlation between different parameters such as oxidation characteristics or absorption behavior and the effective conjugation length was established. Spectroelectrochemical investigations showed the polaronic and bipoloronic features of the electropolymers. Multielectrochromic properties of electrodeposited polymers on successive doping suggested their application as electroactive layers in electrochromic devices.

Dendritic conducting polymers(CPs) are a novel class of porous pseudocapacitive electrode materials assembled with the combination of highly reversible redox active triphenylamine(TPA) and thiophene, 3-methylthiophene, selenophene and thieno[3,2-b]thiophen moieties. Due to the unique combination of three dimensional conducting network, fast redox reversible reactions, porous morphology, high thermal and electrochemical stability have fetched these pseudocapacitive polymers to exhibit high specific capacitance and emerged as an ideal candidate for energy storage devices. The electrochemical performance of as-prepared polymers showed specific capacitance of 278, 257, 246 and 315 Fg?1 for poly tris[4-(2-thienyl)phenyl]amine (P1), poly tris(4-(3-methylthiophene-2-yl)phenyl)amine (P2), poly tris(4-(selenophen-2-yl)phenyl)amine (P3) and poly tris(4-thieno[3,2-b]thiophen-2-yl) phenyl)amine (P4) respectively with low internal resistance. An insertion of selenophene and thieno(3,2-b)thiophene linkers in TPA block showed enhanced electrochemical performance than the thiophene-TPA pair. Furthermore, asymmetric supercapacitors were assembled with the polymer as cathode and activated carbon as an anode and the detailed electrochemical characterizations has been investigated. This research may shed light on designing new redox active psuedocapacitors and other electrochemical devices.
