Photosensitive layers of TiO2/polythiophene composites prepared by electrodeposition

Abstract

We adapted an electrophoretic deposition method for the preparation of thin layers of insoluble composite nanoparticles composed of TiO2 core and about 2 nm thick shell of polythiophene, prepared by oxidative polymerization of thiophene.
