Abstract
A historical introduction into the field of Graphite Intercalation Compounds (GIC's) is given. It is shown that a great variety of structural variations, including order and disorder phenomena, occur in these layered compounds. After a few short comments on the lattice dynamics of these materials, their electronic structure is discussed in detail. Charges in GIC's are discussed both in reciprocal and real space.
Within the class of donor compounds, π-like carriers from the carbon sublattice and s-like carriers from the intercalant sublattice have to be considered. Differences are found between the electronic structures of high- and low-stage compounds (“stage”=number of carbon layers between two neighbouring intercalant layers), and between stage 1 compounds of the C8M (M=K, Rb, Cs) and the C6Li type. The electronic structure of acceptor GIC's can be derived from a system of charged graphite layers alone. In either case, screening of the intercalant layers leads to an inhomogeneous distribution of the counter charges over the carbon sublattice. This means that carbon layers become inequivalent as soon as there are more than two of them between successive intercalant layers.
Finally, a selection of physical properties of GIC's are discussed and related to the electronic structure in these materials.
