Organic semiconductors—metal phthalocyanine sheet polymers

This publication discusses the electronic, magnetic susceptibility, MS and GC–MS pyrolysis, X-ray powder diffraction, and electrical conductivity studies on metal phthalocyanine sheet polymers. The magnetic measurements over the range of magnetic field strengths 1025–6144 gauss indicated the absence of the intermolecular cooperative effect. MS and GC–MS studies indicate that all these metal phthalocyanine sheet polymers give benzene, cyanobenzene, and dicyanobenzene on thermal degradation. The electrical conductivity measurements showed that these polymers are semiconductor in nature.
