Summary on Grant Application Form |

The programme continues and expands work on crystalline organic molecular metals started in GR/K60824, concentrating on the evolution of the bandstructure and electronic density of states with increasing magnetic field in quasi-two-dimensional charge-transfer salts. Quasi-static fields in Oxford will be used to measure angle-dependent magnetoresistance oscillations, the Subnikov-de Haas effect and Fermi-surface traversal resonances; these techniques will be extended to fields of up to 35 T in visits to NHMFL Tallahassee. Pulsed magnetic fields in Oxford and Los Alamos will be used to study the de Haas-van Alphen effect and magnetotransport. Equipment based on GHz impedance measurements will be developed and used in destructive flux-compression magnets providing a fields of up to 1000 T in order to understand the physics of the quantum limit in a correlated system. Numerical models will be used to extract information about the electronic density of states from the experimental data. The criteria for the observation of the quantum Hall effect in the charge-transfer salts will be studied. Newly discovered charge-transfer salts will be measured as they become available.
