Unusual Electrochemical Properties of the Electropolymerized Thin Layer Based on a s-Tetrazine-Triphenylamine Monomer

In this work the electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical characterization of a s-tetrazine-triphenylamine derivative with a donor-acceptor-donor-type structure is reported, which in addition undergoes electrochemical polymerization. The investigations of the polymerized layers have revealed unusual characteristics. Thin polymeric film exhibits charge trapping properties with great storage and memory effect. Moreover, the polymer displays reversible switching of fluorescence in oxidation mode and emission of light during reduction.
