In this paper, we present conductivity measurements made on Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) polymeric films obtained from pyrrole derivatives (3-hexadecyl-pyrrole and mixtures 3-hexadecyl-pyrrole/pyrrole) and deposited onto interdigitated stuctures designed ad hoc for electrical measurements on planar structures, Step response and voltage vs. current characteristics are reported and discussed, with particular attention to linearity and stability; from these data, the resistivity values of both types of film are derived. The results show that monolayers obtained from the mixtures are by far more conductive (four orders of magnitude) than pure 3-hexadecyl-pyrrole (3HP) multilayers, and that their electrical behaviour can be easily related to a pure Ohmic behaviour, while the 3HP multilayers cannot be considered as pure Ohmic components.

Abstract
In this paper, we present conductivity measurements made on Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) polymeric films obtained from pyrrole derivatives (3-hexadecyl-pyrrole and mixtures 3-hexadecyl-pyrrole/pyrrole) and deposited onto interdigitated stuctures designed ad hoc for electrical measurements on planar structures, Step response and voltage vs. current characteristics are reported and discussed, with particular attention to linearity and stability; from these data, the resistivity values of both types of film are derived. The results show that monolayers obtained from the mixtures are by far more conductive (four orders of magnitude) than pure 3-hexadecyl-pyrrole (3HP) multilayers, and that their electrical behaviour can be easily related to a pure Ohmic behaviour, while the 3HP multilayers cannot be considered as pure Ohmic components.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
