Abstract
Soluble polythiophenes with functional acrylic moieties in the side ch ain can be prepared by copolymerization of hexylthiophene and an acryl ated thiophene. Short reaction times are required to inhibit the acryl ic function to interfere with the oxidative thiophene polymerization w ith FeCl3. Preliminary irradiation experiments have shown that the cop olymers act as negative resists in electron-beam (EB)-lithographic pro cedures, and can lead to conductive patterns.
