Synthesis of electrically conducting organic polymers: halogen derivatives of polyacetylene, (CH)x

TLDR
When silvery films of the semiconducting polymer, trans polyacetylene, (CH)x, are exposed to chlorine, bromine, or iodine vapour, uptake of halogen occurs, and the conductivity increases markedly (over seven orders of magnitude in the case of iodine) to give silvery or silvery-black films, some of which have a remarkably high conductivity at room temperature.
Abstract
When silvery films of the semiconducting polymer, trans‘polyacetylene’, (CH)x, are exposed to chlorine, bromine, or iodine vapour, uptake of halogen occurs, and the conductivity increases markedly (over seven orders of magnitude in the case of iodine) to give, depending on the extent of halogenation, silvery or silvery-black films, some of which have a remarkably high conductivity at room temperature.

2D Poly(arylene vinylene) Covalent Organic Frameworks via Aldol Condensation of Trimethyltriazine

TL;DR: 2D poly(arylene vinylene)s are prepared as highly crystalline covalent organic frameworks (COFs) by base-catalyzed aldol condensation of trimethyltriazine with aromatic dialdehydes and reveals a dramatic macroscopic structural reorganization that has not been previously observed in framework materials.

Halide Photoredox Chemistry.

TL;DR: A plethora of new inner-sphere complexes based on transition and main group metal halide complexes that show promise for HX splitting are described and some key goals for future research promise to direct the field of halide photoredox chemistry to even greater heights.

Influence of dopant size and electron affinity on the electrical conductivity and thermoelectric properties of a series of conjugated polymers

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of dopants with varying sizes and electron affinities (EAs) are combined with polymers of differing ionization energies (IEs) to investigate how the difference between polymer IE and dopant EA influences the doping efficiency and electrical conductivity, and how the dopant size influences the thermoelectric properties.
