Abstract: Polyaniline film was prepared by electrochemical method in an acidic solution of aniline. The micromorphology of the polyaniline film was transformed to three-dimensional network structure instead of little particles while the deposition time was extended. The peak wavelength of the photoluminescence spectrum was 491 nm. The luminous intensity increased with the extension of deposition time, and so did the electrochemical activity.

Key words: Polyaniline, Electrodeposition, Photoluminescence, Electrochemical activity
