Abstract
Processibility of conjugated and conducting polymers is one of the major topics in the chemistry and applications of these polymers. In this paper we describe the gasphase photopolymerization of phenyl azides, that yield thin films of poly-1,2-azepines on a variety of substrates. The photochemistry occurs at the interface of substrate and gas-phase and the polymer is grown at the surface of the substrate. High resolution patterns of poly-1,2-azepines are formed when a photomask is used in this gasphase photopolymerization. Upon oxidative doping with iodine or arsenic pentafluoride these polymers exhibit conductivities up to 0.01 S/cm. Mechanism, kinetics and versatility of the photopolymerization of phenyl azide and a series of substituted phenyl azides is discussed.
