Abstract

Electropolymerization of unsubstituted and substituted propylene - dioxythiophenes (i.e., ProDOT & ProDOT-Bz) on ( ˜7 μm diameter) single carbon fiber microelectrodes (SCFMEs) in different electrolytes resulted the network of nanopore structures. Surface morphology of coatings were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), the attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) was used for the characterization . Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic investigation of these nanostructures has been indicated the capacitive behavior of electrode system. Data were used to simulate at applied potential and explained by equivalent circuit modeling.
