Abstract
An organic Mott insulator,
-(BEDT-TTF)
2ICl
2, is metallized by application of extremely high
pressure up to 9.0GPa. When the metallic state is stabilized,
superconductivity with the highest transition-temperature (
Tc) among
organic systems appears. The maximum
Tc that we observed was
14.2K(onset) at 8.2GPa. A magnetic-field effect on this superconductivity
and normal-state properties are discussed in terms of comparison with other
organic superconductors.
Key words. Organic superconductor, high pressure.
