Evidence for three-dimensional Dirac semimetal state in strongly correlated organic quasi-two-dimensional material
Abstract
The three-dimensional Dirac semimetal is distinct from its two-dimensional counterpart due to its dimensionality and symmetry. Here, we observe that molecule-based quasi-two-dimensional Dirac fermion system, α-(BEDT-TTF)2I3, exhibits chiral anomaly-induced negative magnetoresistance and planar Hall effect upon entering the coherent inter-layer tunneling regime under high pressure. Time-reversal symmetry is broken due to the strong electronic correlation effect, while the spin-orbit coupling effect is negligible. The system provides an ideal platform for investigating the chiral anomaly physics by controlling dimensionality and strong electronic correlation.
