CHARGE-TRANSFER COMPLEXES OF (TTFTE)2 - PREPARATION, STRUCTURE, AND ELECTRICAL-CONDUCTIVITY
Organic metals based on organo-tellurium units are of particular interest because of the increased orbital overlap in these systems which leads to favorable conditions for conductivity. The figure shows the crystal structure of (TTFTe)2 . TCNQ, which is semiconducting, while the (TTFTe)2. (TCNQ)2 complex has a conductivity of 8.2 S/cm at room temperature.
