Magnetic and conduction properties in 1D organic radical materials: an ab initio inspection for a challenging quest.

Résumé

The chemical control of magnetic and conduction properties for organic radicals is mainly based on t, the resonance integral, and U, the on-site repulsion, used in the Hubbard model. A qualitative analysis based on the competition between the kinetic and the Coulomb contribution, and the expression of the magnetic exchange coupling suggests that U should be roughly 800 cm(-1) while the resonance integral |t| should be 200 cm(-1) to reach bifunctionality. Ab initio wavefunction-based calculations allowed us to quantitatively measure those quantities for several organic materials considered as 1D systems starting from their reported crystal structures. The extraction of t and U parameters from the exchange coupling constants between neighbouring radicals allowed us to anticipate a possible metallic behaviour. Finally, the impact of chemical changes in the constitutive units is measured to rationalize the macroscopic behaviour modifications. It is shown that the intriguing regime characterized by simultaneous itinerant and localized electrons might be achieved by molecular engineering.
