The conductive polymer–electrolyte interface plays an important role in many electrochemical devices. An unusual situation arises when a solvent-free ionic liquid (SF-IL) is used as the electrolyte because it behaves as a molten salt rather than an electrolyte solution. On the basis of Raman spectra, it was found that the presence of ion pairs of SF-IL in the vicinity of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) results in a decrease in the oxidation level of the polymer and an increase in the HOMO–LUMO gap. The process of polymer “dedoping” and the modification of the electronic structure of the polymer are illustrated by quantum chemical calculations.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
