Abstract
Composite materials of poly(3-octylthiophene) and titanium dioxide (POT/TiO 2) were synthesized by ultrasound method and in-situ method. The chemical interaction in the composite materials is discussed with help of X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and infrared spectroscopy (IR). Ultraviolet-visible spectra (UV-vis) showed that optical performance of the composite materials was far superior to POT or TiO 2 separately, and the chemical bond effect was more intense in the composite material prepared in in-situ method.
