Sažetak
Alpha-(BEDT-TTF)2I3 is a quasi-two-dimensional organic semimetal with a sharp phase transition to insulating state at TCO = 136 K. Below the transition a charge order is present in the BEDT-TTF layers as alternating charge-rich and charge-poor horizontal stripes.[1-3] We characterized the charge response of this charge-ordered state using dc resistivity, dielectric and optical spectroscopy in different crystallographic directions within the BEDT-TTF layer.[4] In this presentation we describe in detail the complex anisotropic dielectric response in the Hz-MHz range. We argue that it reveals two different kinds of excitations: a phason-like excitation alongside a soliton-like one. Possible ramifications are discussed within recent theoretical frameworks.[5] [1] Y. Takano et al., J. Phys. Chem. Solids 62, 393 (2001). [2] Organic Conductors, Special Topics Section, J. Phys. Soc.
