Abstract: | The density wave phase of α-(BEDT-TTF)2KHg(SCN)4 was investigated by transport properties and magnetic susceptibility. The density wave transition was observed as a broad increase at TDW=9 K by resistance measurement. Temperature dependence of the static magnetic susceptibility χ shows a large Curie tail below 100 K. By subtracting the Curie component, we found that the magnetic susceptibility increases like weak ferromagnetism with decreasing temperature below 7.4 K. The gradual increase of χ below TDW is not expected in simple CDW or SDW, where the magnetic susceptibility decreases with decreasing temperature due to the reduction of Pauli paramagnetic component. To explain the weak ferromagnetic behavior, we consider the coexistence of CDW and SDW. We propose a model of the mixed density wave, where CDW exists with antiferromagnetically coupled canting spins. |
