An investigation of the electrical conductivity in highly oriented graphite intercalation compounds
Abstract
It was the possibility of making a lightweight, practical conductor of electricity that led to the research reported here. SbF5, which acts as an acceptor in graphite intercalation compounds has been observed to yield compounds having a axis conductivity comparable to that of copper. The following is a report of an extensive investigation of the various aspects of SbF5 intercalated graphite of interest to its use as a practical conductor.
