Abstract
In this work the electrochemical synthesis and the redox reactions (both n- and p-doping) of poly(paraphenylene vinylene) (PPV) have been studied in situ by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy using the attenuated total reflection (ATR) method and by resonant Raman spectroscopy. During electrochemical polymerization a growth of bands assigned to PPV was observed both in FTIR and Raman spectra. The charging-discharging reaction of the PPV films showed reversible spectral changes.
