Understanding trends in conductivity in four isostructural multifunctional crystals of Se substituted bis-dithiazolyl radicals

“…[15][16][17][18][19] Organic semiconductors with magnetic properties are a cheaper, light-weight and less environmentally harmful alternative to conventional inorganic materials based on scarce rare earth and transition metals. [20][21][22][23] The use of organic materials in spin electronics overcomes the problem of the exceedingly fast spin relaxation times that inorganic materials have, making them a promising substitute for spintronic devices. [24][25][26][27] However, despite these advantages, the relatively low conductivity of these materials, in comparison with traditional metals or inorganic semiconductors, has been a limitation for their technological applications.…”
