UV Laser Ablation of Electronically Conductive Polymers

The UV laser ablation of thin polypyrrole and polyaniline films coated on an insulating substrate is described. UV laser ablation is used to pattern the conductive polymer coating; patterns with submillimeter features are easily obtained with edge resolution on the order of a few microns. Electronic...
