摘要
We demonstrate that an organic Mott insulator, beta'-(BEDT-TTF)(2)ICl2, is metallized by application of extremely high pressure by means of the cubic anvil press. When the metallic state is stabilized, superconductivity with the highest transition-temperature (T-3) among the organic systems appears. The lower limit of the pressure at which the superconducting transition manifests itself is approximately 7.0 GPa and T-c reaches a maximum value, 14.2 K (onset), at 8.2 GPa. The pressure-temperature phase diagram is constructed and discussed in terms of the comparison with those of other organic systems,
