    Metallic coordination polymers using CS2 as starting material
    (1987) Keller, Heimo J.; Klutz, Thomas; Münstedt, Helmut; Renner, Gerd; Schweitzer, Dieter
    Organic polymers with "metallic" properties have found widespread interest during the last few years. Acetylene and aniline as well as different nitrogen and sulfur heterocycles have been used as starting materials. One main problem hampering the technical application of these solids up to now is their environmental and thermal instability. Therefore, we introduced metal ions to stabilize polymeric backbones with high electrical conductivity. Because of the enormous coordination ability of sulfur to many transition metal ions we decided to use a polymeric carbon-sulfur backbone.

    ODMR of triplet states of organic electron donors
    (1986) Grimm, Hans; Schweitzer, Dieter; Hausser, Karl H.; Keller, Heimo J.
    Energies of the first excited triplet states and triplet zero field splitting parameters /D/ and /E/ of several organic donors - usually used for the preparation of organic metals and superconductors - are reported.

    Molecular metals and superconductors: BEDT-TTF radical salts
    (1987) Schweitzer, Dieter; Keller, Heimo J.
    The first discovery of superconductivity in an organic metal - in the radical salts of TMTSF (tetramethyltetraselenafulvalene) - under pressure and ambient pressure has demonstrated that in addition to the usual intrastack contacts between the donor molecules in quasi one dimensional metals intermolecular contacts between molecules in neighbouring stacks are important. These interstack contacts result in a less pronounced one dimensional electronic behaviour leading to a stabilization of the metallic character down to low temperatures.

    Existence of two phases in β-(BEDT-TTF)2I3: proof by resonance Raman spectroscopy
    (1987) Swietlik, Roman; Schweitzer, Dieter; Keller, Heimo J.
    Among various organic metals and superconductors based on the BEDT-TTF molecule [bis(ethylenedithiololtetrathiafulvalene] and different polyhalide anions the most intensively studied is β-(BEDT-TTF)2I3. Partially it is caused by the fact that these crystals exhibit the superconductivity with the highest critical temperature reported for organic materials, but the main reason of this interest is the existence of two superconducting states in these crystals. Under ambient pressure the superconductivity in β-(BEDT-TTF)2I3 is observed below Tc≈1,3K1-4 (low-Tc phase) but after a particular pressure-temperature cycling procedure the superconductivity can be stabilized under ambient pressure at Tc≈8,1K5,6(high-Tc phase). α-(BEDT-TTF)2I3 is another modification of the salt formed hetween BEDT-TTF and I3-; at ambient pressure α-phase crystals undergo a metal-insulator phase transition at T=135K 4,7. Recently, it was discovered that by tempering α-phase crystals at about 75°C for several days crystals can be obtained with similar properties as the high-Tc state of the β-crystals 8,9 (these crystals are further denoted as α t-(BEDT-TTF)2I3).
