Main Results:

  • Observed thin-layer electrochemistry with fast electron transfer and electron hopping charge propagation.
  • Determined electron hopping diffusion coefficient (3 x 10^-10 cm^2 s^-1) and redox concentration (gamma Os = 4 x 10^-10 mol x cm^-2).
  • Revealed simultaneous ion and solvent exchange during redox switching, with significant solvent flux.

Conclusions:

  • LbL films exhibit ideal cyclic voltammetry, indicating full redox switching within experimental timescales.
  • Electron hopping is the primary charge propagation mechanism.
  • Electrochemical switching involves substantial solvent movement, influencing film properties.
