Abstract:
We report the molecular dipole effect on conduction electrons in the title superconductor. The angular-dependent magnetoresistance has a peak for fields nearly parallel to the conducting layer, and the peak width scales as the field component perpendicular to the layer, indicating incoherent interlayer transport. However, two closed Fermi surfaces are observed in quantum oscillation. Accordingly, crystallographically independent layers have different charge densities in a bulk single crystal. The electric dipole of tetrahydrofuran gives rise to interlayer charge disproportionation.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
