Abstract

We have developed a system to measure electrical resistivity, thermopower and thermal conductivity of tiny fragile organic conductors simultaneously. Figure of merit Z has been successfully determined from these transport coefficients for a two-dimensional organic conductor τ-(EDO-S,S-DMEDT-TTF)2(AuBr2)1+y, (y≤0.875), where EDO-S,S-DMEDT-TTF is ethylenedioxy-S,S-dimethylethylenedithio-tetrathiafulvalene, for the first time.
