Abstract: | In the present paper we report about the last advances concerning the structure and properties of electrochromic photosensitive metallopolymers based on the complexes of Pt, Pd, Ni, Co, Cu with Schiff's bases. The criteria of selection of the object for the synthesis of new polymers with one-dimensional, reversible, controlled photo- and electroinduced charge transfer was determined. A model for the polymer structure was proposed. The ohmic resistance in the direction parallel and perpendicular to the microelectrode surface of gold-coated α-Al2O3 differs as 1: 106-109 depending on the polymer and film thickness. A qualitative model of the processes of light energy accumulation was proposed. |
