Slipped Versus Eclipsed Stacking of Tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and Tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) Dimers

Abstract

The quasi-one-dimensional organic metal TTF-TCNQ exhibits ordering of like molecules (TTF or TCNQ, and their radical ions) in segregated stacks. In order to understand this ordering, calculations are performed for the isolated dimers (TTF2, TCNQ2, and their ions) as a function of “slip”. The dimer calculations first use semiempirical molecular orbital (MO) theory (extended Hückel, CNDO/2) and finally the Gordon-Kim density functional method.
