‘Organic metals’. New classes of p-type dopants for converting polyacetylene, (CH)x into the ‘metallic’ state

Abstract

When ca. 85%cis films of the semiconducting polymer, ‘polyacetylene,’(CH)x, are treated with H2SO4, HClO4, (NO2)(SbF6), (NO)(SbCl6), and (NO2)(BF4) two new classes of dopants are introduced to give golden, flexible films exhibiting high conductivities characteristic of the metallic state.
