Comparison of the phase diagram of the half-filled layered organic
superconductors with the phase diagram of the RVB theory of the
Hubbard-Heisenberg model
We present an resonating valence bond (RVB) theory of superconductivity for
the Hubbard--Heisenberg model on an anisotropic triangular lattice. We show
that these calculations are consistent with the observed phase diagram of the
half-filled layered organic superconductors, such as the beta, beta', kappa and
lambda phases of (BEDT-TTF)_2X [bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene] and
(BETS)_2X [bis(ethylenedithio)tetraselenafulvalene]. We find a first order
transition from a Mott insulator to a d_{x^2-y^2} superconductor with a small
superfluid stiffness and a pseudogap with d_{x^2-y^2} symmetry. The
Mott--Hubbard transition can be driven either by increasing the on-site Coulomb
repulsion, U, or by changing the anisotropy of the two hopping integrals, t'/t.
Our results suggest that the ratio t'/t plays an important role in determining
the phase diagram of the organic superconductors.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figur
