Unconventional charge density wave in the organic conductor alpha-(BEDT-TTF)2KHg(SCN)4
Abstract
The low temperature phase (LTP) of alpha-(BEDT-TTF)2KHg(SCN)4 salt is known for its surprising angular dependent magnetoresistance (ADMR), which has been studied intensively in the last decade. However, the nature of the LTP has not been understood until now. Here we analyse theoretically ADMR in unconventional (or nodal) charge density wave (UCDW). In magnetic field the quasiparticle spectrum in UCDW is quantized, which gives rise to spectacular ADMR. The present model accounts for many striking features of ADMR data in alpha-(BEDT-TTF)2KHg(SCN)4.
