Abstract

Low-temperature electronic properties of the first all-organic donor-acceptor-type superconducting system, (BETS)₂(X₂TCNQ) [X=Cl, Br] under high pressure have been investigated by means of resistivity and ¹H NMR experiments. The crystal structure of this class of complexes is characterized by a twin-columnar structure of BETS without intra-columnar dimerization at room temperature. Pressure-temperature phase diagrams are established for these compounds, where the electronic ground states are spin-density-wave (SDW's) insulators, except a narrow region of superconducting state in (BETS)₂(Cl₂TCNQ). A possible unified picture of the electronic states of the title compounds is discussed in terms of hydrostatic pressure effects and chemical substitution ones on them.
