Abstract: A film is provided herein which may be either as a coherent coating on an electrode or as an unbacked film. The film is a bilayer, electronically-conducting film comprising an outer film of a polycarbazole and a base film of a polypyrrole. The bilayer film is formed by depositing a coherent coating, consisting of a polycarbazole-on-polypyrrole bilayer film on an electrode and then stripping the bilayer film from the electrode. The electrode may be, e.g., gold, silver, copper, a platinum group metal (ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium and platinum, with platinum or palladium being preferred) or a first transition series metal (e.g. iron, cobalt, or nickel). These electronically-conducting films may have catalysts absorbed therein, to exhibit catalytic behavior, or they may be used for the development of macromolecular electronics.
