Abstract:Carbon with a metallic reflection was prepared from polyaniline (PANI) vapor deposited on the inner quartz wall of a furnace. Electron probe microanalyzer analysis proved that the resultant contained carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur atoms. A Dysonian line shape with paramagnetic properties was observed for the resulting carbon from PANI in the electron spin-resonance spectroscopy measurement. The resistance vs. temperature curve of the carbon indicated semiconductor-insulator properties in a low-temperatur… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
