  • Abstract:In this study, novel poly(3,4-dibromothiophene) (PDBrTh) is firstly prepared through electrochemical polymerization method using boron trifluoride diethyl etherate (BF3<middle dot>Et2O) as polymeric solvent. In BF3<middle dot>Et2O, the electrochemical oxidation potential of 3,4-dibromothiophene is significantly reduced compared with in Acetonitrile/Tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (ACN/TBATFB) system, which provides conditions for high quality polymer preparation. The prepared PDBrTh in BF3<middle dot>Et2O shows good electrochemical activity and thermal stability. The electrochromic and supercapacitive performance of the prepared PDBrTh are also studied. The color of the prepared PDBrTh can be reversibly changed between red and blue with fast response time and high optical contrast. Galvanostatic charge-discharge test shows that the prepared PDBrTh also has good electrochemical energy storage performance. The specific capacitance value of the PDBrTh can reach to 229.6 F g(-1) under the current density of 1 A g(-1), showing good energy storage capacity. An all-polythiophenes electrochromic supercapacitor device (ESD) is constructed by prepared PDBrTh and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), the color of the device can change between red and dark blue. The ESD also shows good energy storage property and robust charge-discharge stability. Moreover, the ESD shows obvious color changes and corresponding light transmittance changes during the charging and discharging process, realizing intelligent visual monitoring of the energy storage state. This study shows that the prepared PDBrTh has good practical application potential in the field of intelligent wearable energy storage.
