Strongly Forbidden Thermodynamic Oscillations in Quasi-One-Dimensional Conductors

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2025-11-04 v1

Abstract

We theoretically show that strongly forbidden oscillations of a specific heat have to exist in metallic phases of some quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) conductors. They appear due to electron-electron interactions under condition of the magnetic breakdown phenomenon between the so-called open interference electron orbits. We argue that such forbidden thermodynamic oscillations can exist in Q1D conductors (TMTSF)2_2ClO4_4 and (Per)2_2Au(mnt)2_2, where TMTSF stands for tetramethyltetraselenafulvalene, Per is polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and mnt is mononitrotoluene, and suggest to discover them.
