Organic Superconductors: when correlations and magnetism walk in
This survey provides a brief account for the start of organic
superconductivity motivated by the quest for high Tc superconductors and its
development since the eighties'. Besides superconductivity found in 1D organics
in 1980, progresses in this field of research have contributed to better
understand the physics of low dimensional conductors highlighted by the wealth
of new remarkable properties. Correlations conspire to govern the low
temperature properties of the metallic phase. The contribution of
antiferromagnetic fluctuations to the interchain Cooper pairing proposed by the
theory is borne out by experimental investigations and supports
supercondutivity emerging from a non Fermi liquid background. Quasi one
dimensional organic superconductors can therefore be considered as simple
prototype systems for the more complex high Tc materials.Comment: 41 pages, 21 figures to be published in Journal of Superconductivity

Symmetry-Controlled Electron Correlation Mechanism for Third Order Nonlinear Optical Properties of Conjugated Linear Chains
Origin Of Negative Chi³ In Squaraines: Experimental Observation Of Two-Photon States
Femtosecond pump-probe experiments performed on squaraines demonstrate strong couplings between the first excited state and high-lying two-photon states. The experimental data agree well with our earlier quantum many-electron calculations based on multiple-excited configuration interactions. We show that high-lying two-photon states in squaraines are critically important to understanding the observed third-order optical properties and that two-level models are inadequate even for molecules with negative third-order optical susceptibilities
