Abstract
X-ray superstructure analyses of the $2k_{\rm F}$ CDW states for two-dimensional organic compounds $\beta$ -(BEDT-TTF) ₂PF ₆ and AsF ₆ were presented Molecular ionicity of BEDT-TTF was evaluated with both intramolecular bond lengths and molecular shape. Strong bending of quasi-neutd BEDT-TTF molecules coupled with the enhanced amplitude of charge modulation was observed Conformational ordering of the terminal ethylenes of BEDT-TTF molecules anddmeriiation between quasi-ionic BEJYI-TTF molecules were also observed These characteristic indicates this CDW is not Peierls-Frohlich type but mupled with the internal degree of the molecular shape and possibly the intersite Coulomb repulsion.
