Abstract:
A precursor polymer prepared from a plurality of electrochemical polymerizable monomers, each monomer having first and second polymer-forming active sites that can be joined by electrochemical polymerization and third and fourth polymer-forming active sites that can be joined chemically in solution, said monomers in said precursor polymer being linked by said third and fourth polymer-forming active sites, said monomers being chosen such that said precursor polymer is soluble in a predetermined solvent while said polymer resulting from the electrochemical polymerization of said precursor polymers via said first and second polymer-forming sites is electrically conducting and insoluble in said solvent,wherein said monomers comprise fluorene, thiophene, pyrrol, biphenyl, poly(vinyl carbazole) or poly (vinyl oxy thiophene).
