Pulsed plasma-chemical deposition of poly(4-vinylpyridine) is found to be a highly effective way of functionalizing solid surfaces with pyridine ring centers. These surfaces can be metallized via complexation to Pd2+ ions from solution, followed by autocatalytic electroless deposition of either copper or nickel films.
