Abstract

Interlayer magnetoresistance of the Bechgaard salt (TMTSF)2NO3 is investigated up to 50 T under pressures of a few kilobars. This compound, the Fermi surface of which is quasi-two-dimensional at low temperature, is a semimetal under pressure. Nevertheless, a field-induced spin-density wave is evidenced at 8.5 kbars above 20T. This state is characterized by a drastically different spectrum of the quantum oscillations compared to the low-pressure spin-density wave state.

    Fourier analysis of the oscillatory magnetoresistance at different pressures. The black and gray lines correspond to data at 4.2 K and 1.6 K, respectively. The magnetic-field range is 10–36 T in (a). In (b), the magnetic-field range is 15–50 T for pressures up to 6.5 kbar. For P=8.5kbar, the magnetic-field range is 22–50 T (since no oscillation can be detected below 22 T).Reuse & Permissions

    Figure 4
    Pressure dependence of the frequencies FH (down triangles), FL (up triangles), and Fc (circles) discussed in the text. Solid symbols are deduced from Fig. 3. Open triangles and circle are from Refs. 19 (ambient pressure SDW state) and 15 (metallic state), respectively. The inset compares the pressure dependence of the frequency FH to the pressure dependence of the fast oscillations in (TMTSF)2PF6. Open squares (SDW state) and solid square (FISDW state) are from Refs. 28, 2, respectively. The dotted lines mark the transition between SDW and metallic (in the main frame) or superconducting (in the inset) ground states. Solid lines are guides to the eye.Reuse & Permissions
