Comparisons of Stability and Spectral Response of n-Si Electrodes Modified with Polyaniline and Polypyrrole in Aqueous Solutions$^1$

  • Published : 1987.10.20

Abstract

Modification of n-Si electrodes coated by photogalvanostatically with polyaniline and polypyrrole in aqueous solutions considerably enhanced the stability and the spectral response of the photoelectrodes. A polypyrrole coated electrode incorporated with redox couple $Fe(CN)_{6}^{3-_6}$ / $Fe(CN)_{6}^{4-_6}$ yielded a photocurrent density of 400${\mu}A/cm^2$ for about 120 hours. Broad spectral responses over 300-850 nm were observed for both polymer coated electrodes of which polypyrrole coated one showed better current conversion efficiency.
