Abstract
The electrochemical method of this invention allows deposition of an electrically conductive trans-polyacetylene film on a substrate from a solution comprising substantially dehydrated ethyl alcohol.
Claims8
An electrochemical method for depositing an electrically conductive trans-polyacetylene film on a substrate from a solution, which method comprises the steps of:
- providing a solution comprising substantially dehydrated ethyl alcohol in a reactor,
- immersing a pair of electrodes in said solution, the anode of said electrode pair acting as said substrate,
- maintaining an oxygen-free and moisture-free inert atmosphere above said solution in said reactor, and
- applying a voltage between said electrodes sufficient to perform electrochemical deposition of a trans-polyacetylene film on said substrate from said solution.
