A. Graja et al., Electrical properties of composite materials obtained by mechanochemical charge-transfer between BEDT-TTF and gold-derived acceptors, SYNTH METAL, 120(1-3), 2001, pp. 753-754
Conducting organic composites obtained by direct solid-solid charge-transfe
r reaction between bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT-TTF or short
er ET) and iodides AuI or AuI3 present metallic behaviour for appropriate s
toichiometry and appropriate grinding and annealing conditions. X-ray diffr
actograms, Raman spectra and d.c, electrical conductivity measurements of t
hese composites are discussed and compared with those of (ET)(2)/I-3. The c
omplex structure of the investigated composites is suggested.
