▎ 摘　　要

In this work, the influence of silicotungstic acid concentration on the diphenylamine (DPA) electro-polymerization in the absence and the presence of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) is studied. The optical properties of the composites based on polydiphenylamine (PDPA) doped with the H4SiW12O40 heteropolyanions and RGO are investigated by Raman scattering, IR absorption spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL). The presence of RGO induces an up-shift of the oxidation maximum of the DPA, as a result of a covalent functionalization process of graphene sheets with the polymer in the doped state. The deposition of PDPA onto RGO sheets surface is confirmed by the Raman scattering studies. Regardless of the H4SiW12O40 concentration, an up-shift of the IR bands from 910 to 1014 cm(-1) to similar to 920 and 1022 cm(-1) is reported as a consequence of the compensation of positive charges of PDPA macromolecular chains with of the H4SiW12O40 heteropolyanions. An enhancement in the absorbance of the IR bands situated in the spectral range 750-1050 cm(-1) accompanied of a decrease in the relative intensity of the PL bands of PDPA and their composites with RGO, as increasing the H4SiW12O40 concentration, is reported. In the presence of RGO, a change in the PDPA PL spectra profile is also highlighted. (C) 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
