Abstract

Excess electron and excess hole energy bands for γ-PtPc have been calculated using the tight-binding approximation, extended Hückel technique LCAO MO's as basis functions for constructing the Bloch functions and a modified molecular potential. The energy bands obtained are highly anisotropic. It is argued that the holes play a dominant role in the charge carrier transport in PtPc. In the absence of experimental data on PtPc, the calculated results are discussed in the light of the available results for H 2Pc and CuPc.
