BEDT-TTF superconductors studied by mu SR
Muon-spin rotation (mu SR) measurements have been used to study the superconducting vortex properties of the organic superconductors kappa-(BEDT-TTTF)(2) Cu(SCN)(2), alpha-(BEDT-TTF)(2) NH4Hg(SCN)(4) and beta-(BEDT-TTF)(2)IBr2. These materials all have highly anisotropic structures consisting of met...

description | Muon-spin rotation (mu SR) measurements have been used to study the superconducting vortex properties of the organic superconductors kappa-(BEDT-TTTF)(2) Cu(SCN)(2), alpha-(BEDT-TTF)(2) NH4Hg(SCN)(4) and beta-(BEDT-TTF)(2)IBr2. These materials all have highly anisotropic structures consisting of metallic layers of BEDT-TTF molecules alternating with less well conducting anion layers. Varying the anion gives rise to a change in the anisotropy of the superconductivity and also to changes in the superconducting transition temperature. We have used both transverse and longitudinal magnetic fields to study the three-dimensional flux line lattice that is present at low temperatures and fields and to study also the loss of flux lattice order that occurs on increasing the temperature and field.
