ZnO flower/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) composite films were prepared by spin-coating dimethyl sulfoxide doped PEDOT:PSS on the ZnO flowers grown on glass substrate. The thermoelectric properties of the ZnO flower/PEDOT:PSS composite films were measured at room temperature. As the number of spin coated PEDOT:PSS layer increased, the electrical conductivity of the ZnO flower/PEDOT:PSS composite films increases dramatically from 1-layer (177.3 S/m) to 4-layer (910.4 S/m), however, all the composite films have almost the same Seebeck coefficient (~20–22 μV/K). A maximum power factor of ~0.4 μWm−1 K−2 at room temperature was obtained from the composite film with 4-layer PEDOT:PSS.
