Abstract

Tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) 1 is known as an organic conductive material whose high electron conductivity is originated from their π-stacked columnar structures in its single crystals. 2 Reducing the dimensional parameters of the bulk materials matrix from the three-dimensional crystal structure into the one-dimensional columnar structure gathers strong attention since this concept would furnish the functional nanowires 3 which are key materials in advanced nanosciences. Recently, ...
