Abstract
Abstract A new group of materials comprises intercalates of organometallic compounds in layered structures of metal chalcogenohalides. The organometallic intercalates are represented by the general formula MXaYb[Z]c, where M is at least one metal selected from the group consisting of titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron and indium, X and Y are members of the group consisting of chalcogenides and halides, "a" and "b" each range from 0 to 2, with the sum of "a" and "b" being substantially equal to about 2, Z is an organometallic "sandwich" compound with parallel carbocyclic rings and a first ionization potential less than about 7 eV and "c" ranges from about 0.1 to 0.2.
