The two-dimensional organic conductorundergoes a metal-insulator transition atdue to electronic charge ordering. We have conducted time-resolved investigations of its electronic properties in order to explore the field- and temperature-dependent dynamics. At a certain threshold field, the system switches from a low-conducting to a high-conducting state, accompanied by a negative differential resistance. Our time-dependent infrared investigations indicate that close to, the strong electric field pushes the crystal into a metallic state with optical properties similar to the one for. Well into the insulating state, however, at, the spectral response evidences a completely different electronically induced high-conducting state. Applying a two-state model of hot electrons explains the observations by excitation of charge carriers with a high mobility. They resemble the Dirac-like charge carriers with a linear dispersion of the electronic bands found inat high pressure. Extensive numerical simulations quantitatively reproduce our experimental findings in all details.
