“…Its conductivity at room temperature (s RT = 600 S cm À1 ) is the highest along the needle axis which corresponds to the molecular stacking direction. 1 TTFÁTCNQ was prepared and studied in numerous forms such as single crystals, 1 crystalline powders, 2 thin films, 3,4 molecular wires, 5,6 and, more recently, nanoparticles (NPs) through the addition of a growth controller to the reaction medium. 7,8 TTFÁTCNQ NPs were isolated by using (i) stearic or octanoic acid, (ii) butyl-, octyl-or hexadecyl-amine, (iii) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium salts 9 ([BMIM]X with X = BF 4 À or [N(CF 3 SO 2 ) 2 ] À ) or (iv) poly(vinylpyrrolidone).…”
