Crystallinity-Dependent Thermoelectric Properties of a Two-Dimensional Coordination Polymer: Ni3(2,3,6,7,10,11-hexaiminotriphenylene)2

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: The evaluation of thermoelectric properties has recently become a standard method for revealing the electronic properties of conducting polymers. Herein we report on the thermoelectric properties of a two-dimensional coordination polymer pellets. The pellets of Ni₃(2,3,6,7,10,11-hexaiminotriphenylene)₂, which has recently been developed, show n-type thermoelectric transport, dependent on crystallinity. The present results provide systematic feedback to the guideline for high-performance molecular thermoelectric materials.
