Abstract

We report the observation of nonlinear anomalous Hall effect (NLAHE) in the multilayered organic conductor α\alpha-(BEDT-TTF)2_2I3_3 in the charge order (CO) insulating phase just under the critical pressure for transition into two-dimensional (2D) massless Dirac fermion (DF) phase. We successfully extracted the finite nonlinear Hall voltage proportional to square current at zero magnetic field. The observed NLAHE features, current direction dependence and correlation with CO, are consistent with the previous estimation assuming 2D massive DF with a pair of tilted Dirac cones. This is the first observation of topological transport in organic conductors, and also the first example of NLAHE in the electronic phase with spontaneous symmetry breaking.
