PEDOT (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)) is a conducting polymer that combines electrical conductivity with mechanical flexibility, typically used in the form of PEDOT:PSS (doped with polystyrene sulfonate) for commercial applications. It is widely employed in organic electronics, flexible displays, and energy storage devices where the combination of electronic properties and processability from solution is advantageous. PEDOT is valued over alternative conducting polymers for its superior stability, relatively high conductivity, and compatibility with solution-based manufacturing techniques used in printed and flexible electronics.
