Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to characterize the conducting polymer BF4−-doped polypyrrole, and the results revealed that the pyrrole units are preserved in the polymer, the dopant occurs as BF 4− ions, there are four pyr role units per BF 4 − ion, and that electronic charge is extracted uniformly from all pyrrox units by the dopants ion.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A review of the chemistry of acceptor type intercalants can be found in this paper, where it is shown that redox chemistry might be intrinsic to the formation of so-called acceptor compounds and how the oxidative or coordinating capability of a chemical species relates to its behavior as an intercalant.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, an in situ ESR study of the graphite-fluorine system as well as of graphitefluoride acceptor intercalation compounds was performed, with emphasis on the ESR line-shape (A/B ratio) and linewidth, indicating that conduction carriers are scattered by the intercalants due to the spin-orbit mechanism.
