RESUMEN
We report accurate Hall effect measurements performed in the normal phase of the quasi-one-dimensional organic conductor (TMTSF)2PF6 at ambient pressure. The Hall coefficient is found to be strongly temperature dependent all the way from 300 K down to the spin density wave onset arising around 12 K. These new results emphasize the existence of a high temperature regime above 130 K where the Fermi liquid model is not satisfactory.
RESUMEN
Using one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy applied to 13C spin-labeled (TMTTF)2AsF6 and (TMTTF)2PF6, we demonstrate the existence of an intermediate charge-ordered phase in the TMTTF family of charge-transfer salts. At ambient temperature, the spectra are characteristic of nuclei in equivalent molecules. Below a continuous charge-ordering transition temperature T(co), there is evidence for two inequivalent molecules with unequal electron densities. The absence of an associated magnetic anomaly indicates only the charge degrees of freedom are involved and the lack of evidence for a structural anomaly suggests that charge-lattice coupling is too weak to drive the transition.
