Preparation of ultrathin polypyrrole films using an adhesion promoter

Adhesive ultrathin polypyrrole films were deposited on Si/SiO2 substrates modified with the new adhesion promoter 11-(Pyrrol-1-yl Undecyl) TrichloroSilane (PUTS). The oxidation potential of PUTS in solution was determined electrochemically by cyclic voltammetry. Self-assembled monolayers of PUTS wer...

Zusammenfassung:Adhesive ultrathin polypyrrole films were deposited on Si/SiO2 substrates modified with the new adhesion promoter 11-(Pyrrol-1-yl Undecyl) TrichloroSilane (PUTS). The oxidation potential of PUTS in solution was determined electrochemically by cyclic voltammetry. Self-assembled monolayers of PUTS were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, contact angle measurements, ellipsometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Several oxidants for the deposition of pyrrole on adhesion promoter modified substrates were tested and a strong dependence on the obtained film morphology was found. It was possible to deposit chemically ultrathin polypyrrole films on insulating substrates.
