The magnetic-field, temperature, and angular dependence of the interlayer magnetoresistance of two different quasi-two-dimensional (2D) organic superconductors is reported. For k -BEDT-TTF)₂I₃, where BEDTTTF is bisethylenedithio-tetrathiafulvalene, we find a well-resolved peak in the angle-dependent magnetoresistance at Q590°(field parallel to the layers). This clear-cut proof for the coherent nature of the interlayer transport is absent for β″–(BEDT-TTF)₂SF₅CH₂CF₂SO₃. This and the nonmetallic behavior of the magnetoresistance suggest an incoherent quasiparticle motion for the latter 2D metal.

Structural and superconducting properties of (La2.5-xPrxNd0.5)CaBa3Cu7Oz (0≤x≤0.7) compounds have been investigated. Neutron diffraction studies reveal that these crystallize in the triple-perovskite structure (space group P4/mmm) with an oxygen content of 16.6 per formula unit nearly independent of the Pr content. The superconducting transition temperature, Tc, of x = 0 compound is ∼ 79K and decreases almost linearly with increasing x to ∼ 42K for x = 0.7. In order to see if the depression of Tc due to Pr can be compensated by Ca, we examined the compounds (La …
