Abstract

The temperature dependence of the spin-susceptibility χS of (TMTSF) 2X for X=PF6, C104 and ReO4 was measured to hydrostatic pressures of 10 kbar using a Faraday magnetometer. For these three materials the fractional pressure dependence d≡∂ℓnχS/∂P is negative and decreases in magnitude with increasing temperature from approximately -4.5%/kbar below 100 K to -3%/kbar at ambient temperature. This behavior contrasts with that of TTF-TCNQ, where |d| appears to increase with temperature, and with β-(BEDT-TTF)2I3, where d is temperature independent.
