“…Strategies have focused on the development of polymers that mediate charge transport through a self-exchange-based electron conduction mechanism and remain active and stable during use. ,,− Alongside the progress in synthetic approaches that improve current densities, polymer film durability, and, in the case of bioelectrocatalytic membranesbiocompatibility, have been improvements in methods for the study of processes that limit material performance. ,,,,,, Spectroscopic techniques capable of probing electrode-supported redox-active layers in real time under reaction conditions have been greatly sought-after. ,,, Infrared and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy are well suited to in situ investigations of phases near monolayer coverages on electrodes. (cf., refs – ) In the study of thin film and multilayer materials, however, these vibrational spectroscopic techniques are not as easily adapted. Sensitivity is lost as surface-enhanced electromagnetic fields decay and spectral band distortions develop in response to optical dispersion effects. ,, As a step toward overcoming these limitations, we recently investigated confocal Raman microscopy for quantitative in situ measurements within electrode-supported redox polymer films …”
