Thin films of monomeric species polythiophene (PTh), poly-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), and the copolymer PTh/PEDOT were prepared through electropolymerization deposited above fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates. The functional groups (PTh, PEDOT) polymeric (PTh/PEDOT) characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, while morphological properties evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, optical atomic force microscopy. analysis showed that monomers exhibited less material deposition; otherwise, better deposition on substrate. In addition, electrochemical characterization materials resulted from copolymerization presented an improvement in relating to monomer properties. effect overoxidation applied during process is also known.
