Unique assembly of low-dimensional viologen iodoplumbates and their improved semiconducting properties.
Two unique low-dimensional benzyl viologen iodoplumbates [Pb(13)I(38)][B'V](6) (1) and [(Pb(5)I(14))(BV)(2)](n) (2) were prepared from solvothermal reactions of benzyl alcohol with 4,4'-bipy, PbI(2), I(2) and a small amount of water in acetonitrile. The semiconducting properties of the single crystals 1 and 2 along with Zn/Cl-doped samples 2a and 2b were investigated.
