Abstract

Two kinds of new M(dmit)2 salts (M = Ni and Pd, (dmit = 1,3-dithole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolate)) containing poly(4-vinyl-N- octanylpyridinium) (PVOP) as counter cations were synthesized. Semiconducting thin films derived from these salts were prepared by electrochemical deposition method. The Ni(dmit)2 film shows an extremely smooth and uniform surface. The film-forming property of the Ni(dmit)2 salt has been improved significantly by using PVOP as counter cation.
