Notes:
The conductivity of microcrystalline mono- or biscarbyne capped tricobalt clusters and a preliminary study of the physical properties of the thermally decomposed materials are presented. Solid materials with high conductivites are produced by the controlled decomposition of the non- conducting carbonyl clusters in which there are two cluster units or an alkyne/cluster system. Processes leading to conducting solids were studied by thermogravimetric, mass spectral, DRIFT and SEM techniques. Bi-capped clusters are thermally stable insulators but it is suggested that doped materials will show increased conductivity.
