I. Yoshida et al., Kinetics of intercalation of Br-2 or ICl into pyrolytic graphite "NIKAFILM" studied by thermoelectric properties, MOLEC CRYST, 340, 2000, pp. 31-36
The kinetics of intercalation of halogen molecules Br-2 or ICl into pyrolyt
ic graphite "NIKA-FILM", a commercial product of Nihon Carbon Inc., has bee
n studied by the measurement of electron transport phenomena, especially th
e thermoelectric properties. The data were analyzed by a two-carriers band
model, and it was concluded that the change in the resistivity and Seebeck
coefficient is due to the increase in the positive hole density because the
intercalant halogen molecules work as accepters. From the weight increment
the stage index was tentatively estimated to be four, and the deduced char
ge transfer rate was 1.33x10(-4) e/molecule.
