Popis: We report here studies at room temperature of the electrical conductivity of AsF5-graphite, a lamellar intercalation compound. Compounds with composition C8nAsF5 have been synthesized where n is the stage. Preliminary measurements of basal plane electrical conductivities indicating values comparable with OFHC copper have been confirmed. Associated anisotropy ratios α ≡ σ a σ c > 10 6 are observed for n ≤ 3. Data for both the a-axis and c-axis conductivities as a function of stage for low stage compounds is reported.
