Abstract

On improved samples of the tetraselenotetracene derivatives TSeT∙Br0.5 and TSeT∙Cl0.5 we have obtained ρ(4K, 8kbar)/ρ(295K, 1bar) ratios of 1.3∙10-3 and 1.7∙10-3, respectively. This corresponds to a resistivity ρ(4K, 8kbar) of 5∙10-7 Ωcm for TSeT∙Br0.5 and 6.5∙10-7 Ωcm for TSeT∙Cl0.5. These are of the lowest non-superconductive resistivities ever observed in organic compounds.
