✦ Synopsis
Thin, electrically conducting poly(3-methylthiophene) (PMT) films were formed electrochemically and used as cathodes in rechargeable Iithium/sulfur dioxide cells. The pulse power capabilities of 1.4 pm thick PMT films were studied in Li(SO,)&lCl, electrolyte. Current densities of 56 mA cme2 (800 W cmm3) were measured 0.5 s after applying a 1.46 V potential step from open circuit to 2.0 V. Multiple four second current pulses of 25 mA cme2 (approximately 500 W cmp3) with one second rest periods between pulses were reproducible over many cycles.
