Abstract
Films of polypynole, poly(N-methyl pyrrole) and their copolymer, poly( hr-methyl pyrrole-pyrrole), are prepared by an electrochemical polymer ization technique using a planar electrode configuration. Scanning ele ctron microscopy (SEM) studies reveal a cauliflower morphology for the se films which is attributed to the 3D-type modular growth in these po lymers. The effect of annealing on the surface morphology and the cond uctivity of these films are examined.
