title: Quantum criticality in organic conductors? Fermi liquid versus non-Fermi-liquid behaviour.
abstract: Organic metals exhibit unusual electronic properties in their charge and spin degrees of freedom that have puzzled physicists for decades. By now this behaviour is established as intrinsic and related to electronic interactions. Like other correlated electron systems, such as heavy fermions or transition-metal oxides, organic conductors are located next to some ordered phase in the spin or charge sectors. Theory predicts quantum fluctuations to become important at low temperatures and quantum critical behaviour present in most physical properties. Here we survey the experimental evidence of quantum criticality in well-established organic model compounds and look for indications of non-Fermi-liquid behaviour.
