Abstract
A thin layer of conducting polymer, polypyrrole, was deposited on a Pt tip and mass analyzed by the atom-probe. The variation of the mass spectrum of fragment ions of the polypyrrole with exposure time to air indicates that the first stage of oxidation proceeds fairly rapidly but the transition to the fully oxidized stage is rather slow. The estimated thickness of the fully oxidized section is about 45 nm in three months.
