AB  - Organic thermoelectric materials based on conducting polymers have focused on 
      increasing electrical conductivity and optimizing thermoelectric properties via 
      dedoping processes. To control the crystallinity and crystal alignment for 
      enhanced electrical conductivity, a confinement geometry in nanostructures with 
      grapho-epitaxial growth of conducting polymers during in situ polymerization 
      could be a promising approach. We obtained highly ordered lamellar, cylindrical 
      and disordered nanostructures from PEO-b-PPO-b-PEO block copolymer (BCP) and 
      iron(III) tosylate (Fe(Tos)(3)) oxidant blended films and solvent 
      evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) processes. Then, in situ vapor phase 
      polymerization of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT):Tos on differently 
      ordered oxidant/BCP films was performed. The effect of BCP nanostructures on the 
      crystallinity, crystal orientation and electrical conductivity of the PEDOTs was 
      confirmed by nanostructural and crystallographic analyses using grazing incidence 
      small and wide-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS and GIWAXS, respectively) 
      experiments before and after polymerization and after a washing process. 
      Different washing solvents also affected the electrical conductance and crystal 
      structure. We achieved thermoelectric thermopowers up to 70 muW.m(-1).K(-2) by 
      using an immersion dedoping process to reduce the carrier concentration and 
      enhance the Seebeck coefficient, with little change of crystal structure.
