Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: Medium

The authors claim complex 2 is the superior SBD/optoelectronic material relative to complex 1; SI tables support a lower dark ideality factor and lower dielectric constant for complex 2, while other light-condition metrics are mixed.

Caveat: The main text and SI tables conflict on assignment of conductivity and ideality values to complexes 1 and 2; SI Table S1/S2 values were retained as direct table evidence.

CaveatSupport assessment: High

The main article prose and rendered SI Tables S1/S2 conflict on assignment of conductivity and ideality values between complexes 1 and 2; the extraction preserves the SI table assignments and records the conflict.

Phase AssignmentSupport assessment: High

Both materials are pristine one-dimensional Cu(II)-azido coordination-polymer chains, with complex 1 bridged by mu1,3-N3 and complex 2 bridged by alternating mu1,1-N3 and mu1,3-N3 azides.

Caveat: Full CIFs were not supplied; extraction relies on main article Table 1/text and rendered SI Tables S3/S4.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: High

The optical band gaps of 2.91 eV for complex 1 and 2.89 eV for complex 2 support semiconducting behaviour and potential device use.

Caveat: Band gaps come from UV-Vis/Tauc analysis; no independent electronic-structure calculation is reported.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: High

ITO/complex/Al thin-film devices made from both complexes show nonlinear rectifying I-V behaviour consistent with Schottky barrier diode characteristics.

Caveat: Main-text prose and SI tables disagree on complex-number assignments for several device parameters; SI tables were used for final tabulated values and the conflict is recorded in audit.
