A new family of conjugated metallopolymers from electropolymerised bis[(terthiophene)dithiolene] complexes.
Bis(dithiolene) metal complexes incorporating fused terthiophene units have been prepared; the nickel analogue undergoes electropolymerisation to afford a low bandgap material with very broad absorption characteristics.
