Summary: This review compares the methods of electrodeposition of PEDOT on metal neural electrodes and analyzes their effects on morphology and electrochemical performance. The results show that the deposition charge density of PEDOT positively correlates with coating thickness and charge storage capacity. The choice of co-ion in PEDOT deposition affects the coating structure and morphology, with limited influence on charge storage capacity and impedance. The significance of this review lies in providing a common basis for researchers working with PEDOT and setting a standard for accurate and uniform reporting of methods.

Summary: When danger is perceived, the human body responds by releasing stress hormones to help overcome obstacles and ensure survival. However, prolonged exposure to stress can lead to health disorders and reduced quality of life. Therefore, it is important to monitor stress biomarkers to quantitatively control stress levels. In this study, a porous sensor composed of PEDOT and COP is developed to detect the stress biomarkers dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT). The sensor exhibits low detection limits and high sensitivity when tested in artificial urine and phosphate-buffered saline. The interaction patterns between the biomarkers and the sensor material are elucidated through theoretical calculations. Overall, the 4l-COP/p electrodes show promising potential as stress sensing devices in healthcare technologies.

Summary: Carbazole-based monomers are electrodeposited in dichloromethane with different water content and pH, controlling the surface micro- and nanostructures. The presence of water leads to more porous depositions through micellar soft template formation, while water acidity affects the structure and morphology of the monomers. Wetting properties can be tuned through deprotonation or fluorinated postgrafting, resulting in superhydrophobic and oleophobic surfaces.

Summary: In this study, a bioinspired approach was used to conduct soft-template electropolymerization of NaphDOT in dichloromethane with different water content and supporting electrolytes. The role of electrolytes in the formation of reverse micelles was investigated, and their effects on the resulting porous nanostructures were studied. The findings demonstrate that electrolytes not only play a fundamental role in the formation of reverse micelles and porous nanostructures, but also significantly impact the deposition of oligomers on the soft template.

Summary: In this study, various original benzotrithiophene-based monomers were synthesized and investigated for their ability to form nanoporous structures through soft-template electropolymerization in organic solvents, with a focus on the influence of water. It was found that nanoporous structures were especially observed in solvent saturated with water, and the substituent had a significant influence on the size of the porous structures. The highest hydrophobic properties were achieved with perfluorooctyl chains, leading to the formation of a large number of extremely small nanoporous structures. Furthermore, the surfaces exhibited strong water adhesion comparable to rose petals or gecko feet, suggesting potential applications in water harvesting systems.
