Abstract:
Electrical properties of ac plasma polymerized aniline thin films are investigated with a view of determining the dominant
conduction mechanism. The current–voltage (I–V) characteristics in symmetric and asymmetric electrode configuration for
polyaniline thin films in the thickness range from 1300 to 2000 A ° are investigated. From the studies on asymmetric electrode
configuration, it is found that the dominant conduction mechanism in these films is of Schottky type

Abstract:
Polyfurfural thin films lying in the thickness range of 1300–2000 A˚ were prepared by ac plasma polymerization technique.
The current–voltage characteristics in symmetric and asymmetric electrode configuration were studied with a view to determining
the dominant conduction mechanism.It was found that the Schottky conduction mechanism is dominant in plasma polymerized
furfural thin films.The predominance of Schottky mechanism was further confirmed based on the thermally stimulated current
measurements.
