Spin-density-wave transition of (TMTSF)2PF6 at high magnetic fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transverse magnetoresistance of the Bechgaard salt (TMTSF)2PF6 has been measured for various pressures, with the field up to 24 T parallel to the lowest conductivity direction c. A quadratic behavior is observed in the magnetic field dependence of the spin-density-wave (SDW) transition temperature TSDW. With increasing pressure, TSDW decreases and the coefficient of the quadratic term increases. These results are consistent with the prediction of the mean-field theory based on the nesting of the quasi one-dimensional Fermi surface. Using a mean field theory, TSDW for the perfect nesting case is estimated as about 16 K. This means that even at ambient pressure where TSDW is 12 K, the SDW phase of (TMTSF)2PF6 is substantially suppressed by the two-dimensionality of the system.

77Se NMR probe of magnetic excitations of the magic angle effect in (TMTSF)2PF6.
We report 77Se spin-lattice relaxation rates for (TMTSF)2PF6, carried out in the regime where a set of spectacular transport anomalies known as the "magic angle effects" are observed. In situ resistance measurements (R(zz)) were used to verify the experimental conditions and give precise sample alignment information. We found that the 77Se T-11 exhibits no significant changes as the magnetic-fi...
متن کاملEffect of the vortices on the nuclear spin relaxation rate in the unconventional pairing states of the organic superconductor (TMTSF)2PF6.
This Letter theoretically discusses quasiparticle states and nuclear spin relaxation rates T1-1 in the quasi-one-dimensional superconductor (TMTSF)2PF6 under a magnetic field applied parallel to the conduction chains. We study the effects of Josephson-type vortices on T1(-1) by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation for p-, d- or f-wave pairing interactions. In the presence of line nodes in ...
متن کاملAnomalous temperature dependence of resistivity in quasi-one-dimensional conductors in a strong magnetic field
We present a heuristic, semiphenomenological model of the anomalous temperature (T) dependence of resistivity ρxx recently observed experimentally in the quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) organic conductors of the (TMTSF)2X family in moderately strong magnetic fields. We suggest that a Q1D conductor behaves like an insulator (dρxx/dT < 0), when its effective dimensionality is one, and like a metal (d...
متن کاملTemperature evolution of the quantum Hall effect in the FISDW state: Theory vs Experiment
We discuss the temperature dependence of the Hall conductivity σxy in the magneticfield-induced spin-density-wave (FISDW) state of the quasi-one-dimensional Bechgaard salts (TMTSF)2X. Electronic thermal excitations across the FISDW energy gap progressively destroy the quantum Hall effect, so σxy(T ) interpolates between the quantized value at zero temperature and zero value at the transition te...
