Abstract

We present the one-dimensional polymeric structures of [Cu(SePh)]∞1 and [Cu(SeMe)]∞2 that were solved by using powder X-ray diffraction data. Using a field-effect transistor (FET) set-up, the hole mobility of complex 1 was found to be 4 × 10−2 cm2 V−1 s−1, comparable to that of regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). Phase-pure orthorhombic and cubic Cu2Se were synthesized from 1 as a single precursor under vacuum and inert atmosphere, respectively.
