A strongly polarized organic conductor†
Abstract
The electrically conducting salt α-(BEDT-TTF)2(PO-CON(CH3)CH2SO3)·3H2O crystallized in the polar space group, Pna21. 2D conducting BEDT-TTF layers and anion layers alternate along the crystallographic c axis. In the crystal, permanent dipoles of all anions point along the c axis, providing a net crystal dipole moment.
