Abstract
Metal-to-insulator transition temperature (TMI) and the activation energy (EA) in the SDW phase of (TMTSF)2AsFe and (TMTSF)2PF6 were determined under pressure. Pressure dependence of 2EA/KBTMI near the critical pressure of the SDW phase, is compared with the mean-field theory by Yamaji. It was found that TMI is not equal to the normal-to-SDW transition temperature but lower than TSDW. Non-linear conduction was observed in a narrow temperature range above TMI.
