I am spin coating PEDOTPSS film on ITO substrate but getting very bad film. after few minutes of coating bright spots/pin holes start appearing pointing towards the middle. I try to change the rotation but still it appears. After annealing on hot plate the spots appearing too much. Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of this?
Do ozone treatment or plasma treatment of the ITO glass. Use Clevios PVP AI 4083 PEDOT:PSS.
Dear Mir,
IT seems me that your film is nonhomogeneous pointing out problems with the viscosity of the suspension and the spinning process. In addition, you have to take care of the substrate cleaning and activation as hinted by Das above.Much more details are introduced in answering a similar question asked by Giang in the researchgate and he got very useful answers on his question:How to prepare a good PEDOT:PSS film on ITO glass. at the link:

Wish you success.
Dear Abdelhalim Zekry
Thank you very much for the useful suggestion. I will try these things and i check the link t\you attached . its very use full
Dear Mir,
Did you use the PEDOT:PSS only or together with the dopants to increase the conductivity?
I will add to above told. Make sure that your PEDOT:PSS was not frozen to ice. This suspension is destroyed during freezing.
