Figure 1. Fabrication of PPy films.

Figure 1

(A) Schematic illustration of electrosynthesis setup. PPy was deposited onto gold coated silicon wafers using a constant potential, for each of the four counter ions. (B) Chemical structure of PPy. A represents the counter ion incorporated in the polymer to maintain charge neutrality. (C) Chemical structures showing the four different counter ions incorporated in the polymerization of PPy: DBS, TsO, ClO4 and Cl.
