Formation of novel electrically conductive Langmuir–Blodgett multilayer thin films of poly(3-alkylthiophenes)

Abstract
Langmuir–Blodgett multilayer thin films have been fabricated from mixed monolayers containing stearic acid and various poly(3-alkyl thiophenes); the resultant multilayer films exhibit well defined spacings, as indicated by X-ray diffraction, and can be chemically oxidized to produce electrically conductive multilayer thin films.
