Abstract

The ideal conductivity of a one dimensional (1-D) carbon based metal has been studied and compared with previous results on graphite intercalation compounds (GICs). It is suggested that in 1-D compounds, higher order electron-phonon scattering processes should become important because of the freezing of the first order scattering. The implications of these results with respect to available materials will be discussed.

    In the second type, the configuration (as indicated by a response function like dynamical conductivity) is a function of one or more physical parameters but is invariant with respect to time if relevant parameters are kept fixed. Typical parameters include pressure [12], frequency [159,57] or amplitude of the applied bias [57,58]. The electrical transport property of a percolative systems is successfully described by percolation theory.

    Above T0 the fitting curves diverge from the experimental data, which may be related to the fact that the phonon scattering has not been included in the model. Indeed, by adding to Eq. (10) an exponential term β × exp(−δ/T), for scattering in quasi 1D metals [22,23], we obtain very good fits in the whole range of temperatures as presented in the examples in Fig. 3(a). The calculated parameter values were found consistent with values obtained for quasi 1D metals previously considered [20].

    In order to explain the metallic behaviour, it is common practise to include an additive linear term or a quasi-one dimensional metallic term to the expression modelling the resistance [24,26]. This quasi one-dimensional metallic term was originally proposed by Pietronero [30] to explain the metallic behaviour observed in graphite intercalated compounds and is based on electron-phonon interactions. This term will be used as quasi one-dimensional behaviour has been observed in strings of conducting carbon nanoparticles suggesting its applicability to CMSs [31].
