In this study, we show that the optical constants of sputter-deposited chromium depend on the argon pressure used for the deposition. Higher argon pressure gives lower extinction coefficients. Sheet resistance measurements show that those materials with lower extinction coefficients also have lower

β¦ Synopsis
Polypyrrole coatings were formed on stainless steel working electrodes in aqueous oxalic acid solution. The rate of formation of polypyrrole coatings on stainless steel increased proportionately with the current density but increased slightly with increased pyrrole concentration. Increasing oxalic acid concentration also had no significant change in the polymerization rate. The electropolymerization potential of pyrrole decreased significantly from 1.5 to 0.8 V versus SCE when the working electrode was polished. The polymerization potential, E p , of pyrrole, increased however, with increased current density and decreased exponentially with the initial monomer and electrolyte concentration, respectively.

Polypyrrole coatings have been successfully formed on steel from aqueous oxalic acid-pyrrole solutions by electrochemical polymerization. Formation of the coatings was found to be dependent on the pH of the reaction solution and the applied current. In acidic medium, the formation of polypyrrole was
The rate of double helix formation by single stranded Poly A plus Poly U, Poly I plus Poly C, Poly G plus Poly C, and T 2 DNA has been investigated as a function of both the length of the reacting strands and temperature. The length dependence of the rate is found to be independent of temperature. A
