Charge-transfer salts based on bis(ethylenedioxy)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDO-TTF or BO for short) provide a stable two-dimensional (2D) metallic state, while the electrical resistance often shows an upturn at low temperatures below ~10 K. Such 2D weak carrier localization was first recognized for BO salts in the Langmuir–Blodgett films fabricated with fatty acids; however, it has not been characterized in charge-transfer solid crystals. In this paper, we discuss the carrier localization of two crystalline BO charge-transfer salts with or without magnetic ions at low temperatures through the analysis of the weak negative magnetoresistance. The phase coherence lengths deduced with temperature dependence are largely dominated by the electron–electron scattering mechanism. These results indicate that the resistivity upturn at low temperatures is caused by the 2D weak localization. Disorders causing elastic scattering within the metallic domains, such as those of terminal ethylene groups, should be suppressed to prevent the localization.

ABSTRACTThe organic highly conducting Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film formed by a molecular association of BEDO-TTF and stearic acid shows the logarithmic decrease of DC conductivity and negative magnetoresistance at low temperature. These data are interpreted by the weak localization of two-dimensional (2D) electronic system inside the homogeneous conducting layer of BEDO-TTF molecules. The electronic length with phase memory has a mesoscopic scale. Strong evidence of the 2D coherent charge transport in the conducting LB film is provided for the first time.
