Potassium metal was loaded into K-form zeolite L crystals which have one-dimensional (1D) main-channels with an inside diameter of ≈1 nm. The loading density of K atoms per unit cell, n, was changed from 0 to 9.6. Optical, electrical and magnetic properties were measured for the powders of K-loaded zeolite L crystals. A resonant optical absorption-reflection band is observed at ≈1.1 eV in all K-loaded samples. Another reflection band at ≈1.8 eV appears at \(n \gtrapprox 5\). The 1.1 and 1.8 eV bands are assigned to the respective excitations from 1s to 1p and from 1p to 1d states of s-electrons confined in main-channels. A mid-infrared absorption around 0.3 eV is observed at \(n \gtrapprox 3\) and increases with n. This absorption is assigned to a Drude term of s-electrons. A temperature-dependent semiconducting resistivity is observed at \(3 \lessapprox n \lessapprox 9\). A nearly metallic resistivity is observed at \(9 \lessapprox n\). The semiconducting and metallic resistivities are assigned to the po...
