H. Meier et al., PHOTOCONDUCTIVITY OF BRIDGED POLYMERIC PHTHALOCYANINES, Molecular crystals and liquid crystals science and technology. Section A, Molecular crystals and liquid crystals, 230, 1993, pp. 69-74
Photoelectric properties of one-dimensional bridged polymeric phthaloc
yanines, [PcML]n, have been measured. Experiments in surface-type phot
ocells show that photocurrents depend on temperature, intensity, volta
ge and wavelength. Action spectra of photoconductivity are characteriz
ed by definite peaks in the visible and near-infrared region. Moreover
, it has been noted that by specific combinations of macrocycles, Pc,
bridging ligands, L, and central metal atoms, M, photoconductive gain
and spectral response can be tailored.
