Abstract:
Our periodic orbit resonance (POR) results on quasi-two-dimensional (q2D), highly anisotropic q2D and quasi-one-dimensional (q1D) organic conductors are reviewed together with our rotational cavity magneto-optical measurement system. Higher order POR up to seventh order has been observed in the q2D system (BEDT-TTF)2Br(DIA), and the experimental conditions to observe POR and the cyclotron resonance (CR) are discussed. Highly anisotropic q2D Fermi surface (FS) in β″-(BEDT-TTF)(TCNQ), which was considered to have q1D FS previously, is proposed by our POR measurements, and the possible interpretations of other experimental results of β″-(BEDT-TTF)(TCNQ) are discussed assuming the highly anisotropic q2D FS. Finally, detailed q1D FS of (DMET)2I3, obtained from our POR results, is discussed in connection with the typical q1D system (TMTSF)2ClO4.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
