Thin-film technologies electropolymerized films

Electropolymerized films have been used to prevent interferences and fouling in biosensors constructed from reticulated vitreous carbon and platinum disk electrodes (14,15). A biosensor constructed using electropolymerized films can have significantly improved diffusional properties due to the thinness of the film. By engineering the components and properties of a biosensor on a microscopic scale, rather than using "bulk-technology" and physically assembling discrete macroscopic components, as is the conventional practice, an all-chemical method of construction can be achieved. All-chemical methods of construction would... 

Next, in the 1980s, the organic multilayer structures, which are another key technology of present high-performance OLEDs, appeared. In 1986, Hayashi et al. observed a remarkable reduction of the driving voltage by inserting a polythiophene-electropolymerized thin film between an indium-tin-oxide (ITO) anode and a perylene-deposited film.30 The insertion of the polythiophene thin...
