Anion effects on the electronic structure and electrodynamic properties of the Mott insulator kappa$-(BEDT-TT$_2Ag2(CN)3
The Mott insulator $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$\-Ag$_2$(CN)$_3$ forms a highly-frustrated triangular lattice of $S=1/2$ dimers with a possible quantum-spin-liquid state. Our experimental and numerical studies reveal the emergence of a slight charge imbalance between crystallographically inequivalent sites, relaxor dielectric response and hopping dc transport. In a broader perspective we conclude that the universal properties of strongly-correlated charge-transfer salts with spin liquid state are an anion-supported valence band and cyanide-induced quasi-degenerate electronic configurations in the relaxed state. The generic low-energy excitations are caused by charged domain walls rather than by fluctuating electric dipoles. They give rise to glassy dynamics characteristic of dimerized Mott insulators, including the sibling compound $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$\-Cu$_2$(CN)$_3$.
