Cofacially Linked Metallomacrocyclic Conductive Polymers. Halogen Dopant Level and Macromolecule Architecture, Electronic Structure, and Charge Transport

摘要

This paper presents an integrated study of the nature of the halogen doping process for the cofacially joined electrically conductive metallomacrocyclic polymers (M(Pc)O)n, M equal Si,Ge,Sn; Pc equal phthalocyaninato. The properties of the ((M(Pc)O)bry)n and ((M(Pc)O)Iy)n materials have been studied in detail as a function of y by X-ray diffractometry, infrared, optical, resonance Raman, EPR, four-probe van der Pauw, and static magnetic susceptibility. All data are in accord with a principally heterogeneous doping process. The sensitivity of the physical properties to M and interplanar (ring-ring) spacing is clearly evident. (Author)
