Abstract
TTFClO4 salts were included in a PMMA matrix via solvent casting technique under vacuum, up to 72 hours of pumping. The synthesis of the salt, present in the literature was enriched with a further purification procedure, wich resulted important to obtain TTF+. radical cation aggregates. The thin films were characterized by low temperature UV-VIS-NIR absorption, and a multicomponent broad charge transfer band (CT) in the near infrared was found. Raman spectroscopy (RRS) in resonance with the CT transition allowed to study the origin of the CT absorption: the species present in the films were recognized as dimers and aggregates of TTF+. radical cation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
