Ll. Miller et al., VAPOCONDUCTIVITY - SORPTION OF ORGANIC VAPORS CAUSES LARGE INCREASES IN THE CONDUCTIVITY OF A DENDRIMER, Chemistry of materials, 10(7), 1998, pp. 1751
Dendrimers peripherally modified with oligothiophene cation radicals w
ere prepared. The electrical conductivity of thin films showed rapid,
dramatic (up to 800x), and reversible increases in conductivity when e
xposed to certain organic vapors.
