title: Emergence of superconductivity, valence bond order, and Mott insulators in Pd[(dmit)2] based organic salts.
abstract: The EtMe(3)P and EtMe(3)Sb triangular organic salts are distinguished from other Pd[(dmit)(2)] based salts, as they display valence bond and no long-range order, respectively. Under pressure, a superconducting phase is revealed in EtMe(3)P near the boundary of valence bond order. We use slave-rotor theory with an enlarged unit cell to study competition between uniform and broken translational symmetry states, offering a theoretical framework capturing the superconducting, valence bond order, spin liquid, and metallic phases on an isotropic triangular lattice. Our finite temperature phase diagram manifests a remarkable resemblance to the phase diagram of the EtMe(3)P salt, where the reentrant transition of insulator-metal-insulator type can be explained by an entropy difference between the metal and U(1) spin liquid. We predict different temperature dependence of the specific heat between the spin liquid and metal.
