Nano-structured conducting polypyrroles were synthesized in the ionic liquids (ILs) based on 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium family with tetrachloroferrate as an anion ($C_n\;mim\;[FeCl_4]\;with\;n\;=\;4,\;8,\;and\;12$). The polypyrrole nanostructures synthesized in ILs were formed as spherical shapes. For ionic liquids with alkyl side chain length $C_4,\;C_4\;mim\;[FeCl_4]$, the size of particles was ranged around 60-nm with a relatively narrow size distribution. As the length of alkyl chain increases, the particle sizes become larger and their distributions become wider. The self-assembled local structures in the solvent ionic liquids are likely to serve as templates of highly organized nano-structured polymers. The length of the alkyl chain in ionic liquids seems to affect these local structures.

The crystallization behavior of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in the presence and absence of polypyrrole nanoparticles (PPy NPs) was investigated in terms of the heterogeneous nucleation effect of PPy NPs using FTIR, X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimeter and polarized optical microscope analysis. PPy NPs were prepared by dispersion polymerization method stabilized by PVA in aqueous solution. A polymer nanocomposite with uniform dispersity could be readily obtained due to the enhanced compatibility between the filler and matrix. Compared with the PPy NP-absent PVA, the PPy NP/PVA nanocomposite exhibited an enhanced degree of crystallinity. The degree of crystallinity increased up to 17% at the PPy NP concentration of 1 wt%, compared to the pristine PVA. The PPy NP acted as an effective nucleating agent during the crystallization process, thereby enhancing the degree and rate of crystallization. The kinetics study of the crystallization also revealed the decreased value of the Avrami coefficient in the case of the PPy NP/PVA nanocomposite.

염료감응 태양전지의 전극 물질로 금속산화물인 이산화티타늄$(TiO_2)$를 사용하고, 감응제로 malachite green oxalate, basic blue3, rhodamine B, bromocresol purple 염료를 사용할 때 광전환 효율을 높이고 안정성을 향상시키기 위하여 갖추어야될 염료의 전기화학적 특성과 분광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 기준전극에 대한 염료의 산화전위와 흡수파장을 전자볼트 단위로 환산한 값을 더하여 들뜬 상태를 얻었다. $TiO_2$전극의 평활전위$(E_{fb})$를 결정하여 전도띠 끝 준위$(E_{c,s})$를 계산하였으며, 이를 염료의 들뜬 상태와 비교함으로써 합선 전류$(J_{sc})$를 향상시킬 수 있도록 염료가 갖추어야 할 특성을 알아내었다. 또한 폴리피롤 전도성 고분자를 입혀 $TiO_2$의 결함자리에서 전도띠에 있는 전자가 산화된 염료와 재결합하는 것과 $TiO_2$필름의 균열에 의한 염료의 전극반응을 방지함으로써 광전류의 안정성을 향상시킨 결과를 얻었다.
