Abstract
We present experimental observations of the dielectric and energy relaxations in the spin density wave state of TMTSF2PF6. These measurements reveal two distinct dynamical regimes. The dielectric relaxation shows a critical slowing down towards a 'static' glass transition around 2 K. Below this temperature very slow energy relaxation processes appear, which exhibit breaking of ergodicity associated with aging effects. These results are analysed within the framework of glass-forming systems.Keywords
