Pressure dependence of the metal-insulator transition in κ-(BEDT-TTF)2Hg(SCN)2Cl: optical and transport studies
The two-dimensional organic conductor κ-(BEDT-TTF)2-Hg(SCN)2Cl exhibits a pronounced metal-insulator transition at T_{; ; CO}; ; =30 K. From the splitting of the molecular vibrations, the phase transition can be unambiguously assigned to charge-ordering with 2\delta_\rho=0.2e . We have investigated the pressure evolution of this behavior by temperature-dependent electrical transport measurements and optical investigations applying hydrostatic pressure up to 12 kbar. The data reveal a mean-field like down-shift of T_{; ; CO}; ; (p) with a critical pressure of p_c=0.7 +- 0.1 kbar and a metallic state above the suppression of the charge-ordered state ; no traces of superconductivity could be identified down to T = 1.5 K. As the charge order \delta_\rho sets in abruptly with decreasing temperature, its size remains unaffected by pressure. However, the fraction of charge imbalanced molecules decreases until it is completely absent above 1.6 kbar.
