We report the transport properties (longitudinal and transverse conductivity, magnetoresistance and thermopower) of TMTSF-DMTCNQ for pressures up to 13 kbar and temperatures down to 1.2 K together with the phase diagram which results from these measurements. The most striking results are the occurrence of a first order insulator-metal low temperature transition as pressure is increased above 9.75 kbar and the properties of the metallic state. At pressures sufficiently high to quench the Peierls transition the helium temperature conductivity is greater than that found in any organic conductor at any temperature (σ∥ ≳ 105 (Ωcm)-1) and an enormous magnetoresistance (Δρ/ρ0 ~ 15) is found for a field of 75 kOe perpendicular to the conducting chains
2014 Nous présentons la mise en évidence d'un état de conductivité élevée (03C3 > 105 (03A9.cm)-1) à basse température, stabilisé sous haute pression (P > 10 kbar) dans le conducteur organique quasi unidimensionnel TMTSF-DMTCNQ. L'étude de la magnétorésistance suggère que parmi plusieurs interprétations de l'état métallique l'hypothèse d'une supraconductibilité quasi unidimensionnelle de type BCS persistant jusqu'à 30 K environ pourrait être retenue.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
