Research Abstract

The neutral-ionic (NI) phase transition in organic mixed-stack charge-transfer (CT) coupounds, that is the valence change from the neutral DA to ionic DA stack, has been investigated with particular emphaisis on its dynamical aspect. First, the anomalous charge-transport properties associated with the NI transition have been revealed, which are, for example, expontial increase of conductivity with hydrostatic pressure and strong nonlinear field-dependence followed by the negative resistance effect. The latter effect leads to the current switching phenomena with the temperature-dependent hysteresis loop, when an appropriate load resister is connected in series to the sample. These effects are considered to be correlated with the dynamics of low-energy excitations, such as charged solitons and NI domain walls, characteristic of the coumpound near the N-I phase boundary. Dynamical response was further pursued by measurements of frequency-dependent dielectric constant as well as photo-induced reflectance change near the NI phase transition temperature. The relaxation time of dielectric constant show the thermally activated behaviour with well-defined activation enrgy, which nearly coincides with that for charge transport. The dielectric constant, which is very large (>10^4) for the low dc field, show the strong nonlinearity at temperatures near the NI phase transition. These results indicate that the confined NI domain wall-pairs are responsible for such an anomalous dielectric respnse and the dissociation of these charged pair play an important role in nonlinear transport. The large photo-induced signal could be detected in the I phase where the DA stacks are dimerized due to the spin-lattice interaction. The trasient response and photoinduced spectral change can be interpreted in terms of the photo-injection of NI domain walls into the dimerized ionic DA stack.
