Then give Mario a portal gun, add puzzle game mechanics from Portal and there you go. with a focus on perfectly imitating the feel the 1985 classic gave us. But what if Nintendo teamed up with Valve and recreated the famous Mario game with Portal gun mechanics?Ī complete from scratch recreation of Super Mario Bros. These two games managed to give Platformers and First-Person Puzzle Games a solid place in the video game world. Through the GOP-PPF, PMIECs can be tailored to access desirable performance metrics at the molecular level.Two genre defining games from completely different eras: Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. Moreover, g2T2-gBT4 with four EG repeating units exhibits a superior performance compared to its two analogues in OECTs, associated with a high μC* up to 359 F V −1 cm −1 s −1, owing to the optimal balance between ionic–electronic coupling and charge mobility. Specifically, g2T2-gBT6 containing the highest EG density gives the highest charge-storage capacity exceeding 180 F g −1 among the polymer series, resulting from the improved ion diffusivity. The ion diffusivity, charge mobility and charge-storage capacity can be significantly improved by optimizing the EG composition. Importantly, these redox-active PMIECs are investigated as a platform for energy storage devices and organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) in aqueous media. Unlike the typical procedure, GOP-PPF uses a nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction for the facile and versatile attachment of functional units to a pre-synthesized conjugated-polymer precursor.


Here, we propose a “graft-onto-polymer” synthesis strategy by post-polymerization functionalization (GOP-PPF) to prepare a family of PMIECs sharing the same backbone while functionalized with varying ethylene glycol (EG) compositions (two, four, and six EG repeating units). Functionalized polymeric mixed ionic–electronic conductors (PMIECs) are highly desired for the development of electrochemical applications, yet are hindered by the limited conventional synthesis techniques.
