Abstract

The electrical properties of conducting polymers can be efficiently exploited in the development of new smart gas-sensing devices. In this paper the authors describe the preparation of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) polymeric films made from pyrrole monomers functionalized with alkyl chains of variable length. The structural and electrical properties of such films are investigated
