Abstract

This paper presents a study on the synthesis of conductive polymer thin films deposited on glass or quartz plates using radio-frequency plasma (13.56 MHz) polymerization of aniline. The resulting plasma polymerization aniline (PPAn) layer (chemical structure, conductivity) has been investigated in detail. The color, solubility and spectral characteristics (FT – IR) suggest that the conjugation in the main chain is interrupted by saturated linkages and the presence of aliphatic groups, resulted from fragmentation and hydrogenation of aromatic rings, during plasma discharge..
