text: Preparation of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT) coated silica core-shell particles and PEDOT hollow particles.
  Nanometre-sized PEDOT-silica core-shell particles were synthesized and self-assembled into crystalline colloidal arrays with a reflection peak in the visible region; these particles were also etched with hydrofluoric acid to produce hollow PEDOT particles.
