Abstract
In the crystal of β-(BEDT-TTF)2PF6, BEDT-TTF (bis(ethylenedithiolo)tetrathiafulvalene) molecules are arranged side-by-side. The anisotropy of the electrical resistivity shows that β-(BEDT-TTF)2PF6 is the first organic conductor where the conductivity is the largest along the direction parallel to the molecular plane. The metal-insulator transition is observed at 297 K. The thermoelectric power corresponds to that due to the hole conduction in highly correlated system.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
