Abstract

Some results of electrical resistivity (ρ{variant}) and transverse magnetoresistance measurements on single crystals of the charge transfer compound HMTSF-TCNQ under pressure are reported. There is evidence that dρ{variant}/dT remains positive over the whole temperature range under pressure, and that a T2 law is obeyed from 0.19 to 2 K at 14 kbar. Together with a relatively large magnetoresistance this is an indication of semi-metallic behaviour.
