摘要

Poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) have been widely applied in various disciplines because of their unique physical, chemical, and electrical characteristics. To broaden the applications of PILs, stimuli-responsive PILs based on different stimuli have been investigated. Special stimuli-dependent properties of PILs, especially photo-regulated electrical conductivities, however, have not yet been fully accomplished. In this work, we study the photo-regulated electrical conductivities of PIL films by using [C3mim-MA][TFSI], azobisisobutyronitrile, and poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate as an ionic liquid monomer, an initiator, and a crosslinker, respectively. Spiropyran (SP) molecules, which can convert to merocyanine molecules under UV light irradiation, are used as photo-responsive agents. As a result, stretchable and photo-responsive conductive PIL-SP films can be fabricated, which can be reversibly converted to PIL-merocyanine films under UV and visible light illuminations. The photoluminescence properties are confirmed by fluorescence and UV-vis spectra. Furthermore, the reversible photo-regulated electrical properties are investigated by shining UV and visible lights, presented by the Bode plots and Nyquist plots. The PIL-SP films with different crosslinker ratios (1, 5, and 10×) all exhibit similar photo-regulating electrical properties. At higher crosslinker ratios, the DC resistances are higher, resulting in lower conductivities. The study of stretchable and photo-responsive conductive PIL-SP films expands the applications of PIL materials.
