The Relationship Between Structure and Electric Property

Crystalline conductive materials have been receiving increasing attention in recent years for their unique electronic, optical, and magnetic properties. Meanwhile, the deepened study of structure–property relationships is necessary to help guide the design and synthesis of novel functional conductive materials. In this chapter, three series of inorganic, organic, and inorganic–organic hybrids conductive materials were selected from the literatures. In this context, an overview of some representative fantastic advancement in terms of crystal growth methods, inorganic/organic crystalline conductors, and semiconductors is presented along with current challenges and future research directions provided finally.
