  ABSTRACT: We report on electrodes fabricated with EDOT-Pyrrole copolymer through electrophoretic deposition and used for recording and sensing bio-electrical signals. We measured the electrical properties of the copolymer deposited on a stainless-steel substrate, and we performed Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) studies to characterize the morphological properties and copolymer distribution on the metal surface. We found that electrodes fabricated with EDOT-Pyrrole copolymer exhibit a high signal-to-noise ratio as well as an accurate and stable conductivity compared with other commonly used electroconductive polymers. Stainless-steel-coated EDOT-Pyrrole electrodes are suitable to record electrocardiograms in humans with high resolution comparable to standard silver-electrodes.
