Abstract

For thin films of tin dioxide, indium oxide and indium tin oxide, the substrate nature plays a determining role on their structural and morphological characteristics, which modified noticeably their optical property. On these substrates, the electropolymerization characteristics of polypyrrole exhibited the profound modifications related to the active sites for nuclei formation and their growth. These modifications induced the important change in charge transport characteristics of polypyrrole thin films.
