AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how sodium (Na) and potassium (K) doping affect the crystallographic structure of terphenyl and quaterphenyl compounds.
- X-ray scattering and electron diffraction showed that K-doping increases a specific crystallographic parameter for both compounds, while Na-doping results in one parameter decreasing and another increasing, likely due to polymerization effects.
- To enhance understanding of the doping effects, a Raman analysis was performed, revealing insights into radical anion localization and the local distortions caused by the introduced electric charges.
Article Abstract
In this study, we report on crystallographic studies that were performed on Na- and K-doped terphenyl and quaterphenyl. The data obtained via X-ray scattering and transmission electron diffraction show that, for both K-doped terphenyl and quaterphenyl samples, there is an increase in the parameter. However, in regard to Na-doped terphenyl, there is a parameter decrease along with an parameter increase, which may be accounted for by the polymerization of this oligomer. Moreover, in order to complete the crystallographic study, a Raman analysis was conducted to describe the localization of the radical anions and the local distortions induced by the electric charges during the doping process.
