摘要
There is much interest in the search for novel materials that show ferroelectric as well as magneto-electric coupling, such as that observed in multiferroics. Within organic based materials the electronic polarisation can originate from a charge distribution across a molecule or molecules, and so one must search for systems that have an electronic (and magnetic) dipole that is intrinsic. One such material is tetraethylammonium bis-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TEA(TCNQ)(2)) which is a charge transfer system with a single electron that is delocalised across a TCNQ dimer. We show that dielectric measurements yield anomalies at the cation freezing structural distortion and when singlet-triplet excitations freeze. In both cases the electric response is glassy and at low temperature the corresponding magnetic measurements evidence the strong magneto-electric coupling within the material showing scaling behaviour similar to spin glass systems.
