Alkali metal doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are an exciting material platform for organic based superconductors with relatively high critical temperatures. In the case of potassium doped para-terphenyl, some studies have reported signs of superconducting transitions as high as120 K. However, these studies are controversial because of issues with reproducibility. Additionally, the extreme air sensitivity of K_x:p-terphenyl makes it challenging to synthesize and characterize with conventional methods. This thesis presents a new method of solution phase deposition of alkali doped PAHs and apply it to synthesize K_x:p-terphenyl materials for superconductivity using liquid ammonia as a solvent. It will explore the structure of these materials with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction, which demonstrate charge transfer from potassium to p-terphenyl coincident with the formation of new material phases. It will also show initial conductivity measurements that have an atypical linear temperature dependence. Reproducibility of the synthesis will be discussed as well as the future directions of this work. Additionally, it will also explore the ultrafast dynamics of a [2 + 2] photocycloaddition. When exciting to the first excited state, the cycloaddition occurs with the typical mechanism with an excimer intermediate. However, when exciting to the second singlet excited state, the cycloaddition happens on a subpicosecond timescale with a process that resembles singlet fission.
