Abstract

In this work, we describe the preparation of patterned carbon nanotubes/conducting polymers composite electrode. The synthetic methodology consists in an in situ electropolymerization of the monomer in the presence of nanotubes on a prepatterned anode. Two kinds of polymers were investigated: PEDOT and poly (1-8 DAN), and some nanotubes pretreatments were studied. The effect of these procedures was evaluated and discussed.
