Ia. Misurkin et Al. Tchougreeff, CONDUCTIVITY IN QUASI-ONE-DIMENSIONAL ORGANIC METALS - A NEW APPROACH, The Journal of chemical physics, 100(3), 1994, pp. 2223-2231
A new model for the electric conductivity in quasi-one-dimensional org
anic metals is proposed. The conductivity is attributed to electron ho
pping between the separate segments of the one-dimensional donor stack
s. The metalliclike behavior of the conductivity at the room temperatu
re as well the low temperature conductivity maximum are explained. The
relation of the model with the Anderson's confinement hypothesis is b
riefly discussed.
