A membrane-based methodology for electrochemical synthesis and study of electroactive and ionically conductive materials is described. The Li⁺-intercalation material MnO₂ was used to demonstrate this methodology. The membrane was a polymeric support containing monodisperse gold microtubes (diameter 600 nm) that span the thickness of the membrane. Bipolar electrochemical synthesis of MnO₂, from Mn²⁺ solutions, was conducted across this membrane, resulting in deposition of monodisperse, hemispherical MnO₂ particles at the open ends of the tubes on one face of the membrane. The resulting microtube/MnO₂ composite membrane makes a convenient construct for investigating the transport properties of the MnO₂ particles. This was accomplished by mounting the membrane in a U-tube cell, placing electrolyte solutions on either side, and driving an ionic current through the membrane. The ionic conductivity of MnO₂ was measured in this way, and found to be 40±10 μS cm^-1 when LiCl or LiClO₄ solutions were used as the electrolyte. Finally, the mechanism of ionic conductivity through these MnO₂ particles is discussed.
