Organic Thermoelectric Materials and Devices Based on p- and n-Type Poly(metal 1,1,2,2-ethenetetrathiolate)s
A series of metal coordination polymers containing 1,1,2,2-ethenetetrathiolate (ett) linking bridge (poly[Ax(M-ett)]) are synthesized. The Seebeck coeffi cients of these conducting materials are high, and vary according to the center metals and counter cations. The TE device fabricated demonstrates the great potentials of these materials for TE applications.
