Quasi-One-Dimensional Organic Superconductors at High Magnetic Fields: Are They in a Triplet State?

该项目旨在研究基于双四甲基四硒富瓦烯（TMTSF）2 X6的准一维有机超导体的可能超导态的性质，特别感兴趣的是X在高磁场中为PF 6和Cl 0 4。PI的目的是通过分析低磁场和高磁场下的热力学和输运性质来研究超导态的序参量和性质的对称性。研究的一个焦点涉及电子在自旋三重态中配对的可能性。这位聪明的年轻研究者计划在凝聚态理论的前沿进行基础研究，以探索由大有机分子堆叠而成的一类材料的超导性。这些材料易于沿沿着一个方向传导，使它们成为一维的。PI将探索这些材料中超导态的性质，特别是在大磁场中，这些材料具有与普通金属中超导性定性不同的有趣可能性。

This project seeks to investigate the nature of possible superconducting states of the quasi-one-dimensional organic superconductors based on bistetramethyltetraselenafulvalene (TMTSF)2 X6, of particular interest are X being PF6 and Cl04 in high magnetic fields. The PI aims to investigate the symmetry of the order parameter and nature of the superconducting state through analysis of thermodynamic and transport properties at low and high magnetic fields. A focus of the investigation involves the possibility that electrons pair in a spin triplet state. %%% This bright young investigator plans basic research at the frontiers of condensed matter theory to explore superconductivity in a class of materials made of stacks of large organic molecules. These materials conduct easily along one direction making them one dimensional. The PI will explore the nature of superconducting states in these materials, particularly in a large magnetic field, which have the intriguing possibility of being qualitatively different from superconductivity in ordinary metals.***
