Organic superconductors with an incommensurate anion structure

Organic superconductor with an incommensurate anion structure: „MDT-TSF...„AuI2...0.44

The degree of charge transfer and the upper critical field of the organic superconductor ~MDT-TSF!(AuI2)x have been investigated ~MDT-TSF: methylenedithio-tetraselenafulvalene!. The x-ray oscillation photograph indicates that the anion lattice is incommensurate with the donor lattice, and the chemical composition is ~MDT-TSF!(AuI2)0.44 . The charge-transfer degree of this salt is 0.44. The elec...

Probing an Open CFTR Pore with Organic Anion Blockers

The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is an ion channel that conducts Cl- current. We explored the CFTR pore by studying voltage-dependent blockade of the channel by two organic anions: glibenclamide and isethionate. To simplify the kinetic analysis, a CFTR mutant, K1250A-CFTR, was used because this mutant channel, once opened, can remain open for minutes. Dose-response...

Tunnelling in organic superconductors

We discuss the possibility of deciding on the symmetry of the superconducting phase in the organic superconductors (Bechgaard salts), using tunnelling experiments. We first briefly review the properties of organic superconductors, and the possibility to have unconventional (triplet) superconductivity in these systems. We then present a simple scheme for computing the full current-voltage charac...
