Abstract
Potential-step experiments have been used to investigate the electrode position of polyselenienyl thiophene films. It is shown that the initi al step in the formation of films is a nucleation process, The electro chemical data obtained show many similarities to that for the nucleati on and growth of a metal film. Furthermore, atomic force microscopy (A FM) was used to specify the growth morphology for thin coverages of pe rchlorate-doped polyselenienyl thiophene.
