Protonic conductors, layered, intercalation

Inclusion polymerization of conducting polymers such as polyaniline or polypynole in layer structures such as FeOCl or V2O5 opens the way to new classes of hybrid systems (M. Kanatzidis). If the host lattice involves redox reactions such as in V2O5. mobile carriers are creat on the host network which contribute to the overall conductivity of the system, to v ing degrees such that n-type, p-type, and metallic behavior can be observed. Aniline could also be oxidatively intercalated into the layered proton conductor HFe(S04>2 XH2O (D. J. Jones).

The second part treats the chemistry, structures and electrical properties of typical materials, from hydrogen bronzes to polymers via ice, hydroxides, acid sulphates, layer hydrates, inorganic ion exchangers, gels, porous media and mixed inorganic-organic polymers. These materials are compared with liquid and molten salt conductors, intercalated graphites and metal hydrides and have been chosen in order to illustrate the different behaviour of the proton it has electron-like properties in some oxides and hydrides, ion-like behaviour in some other oxides or liquid-state behaviour such as encountered in solution covered particles or pores of a gel.
