High frequency magnetic oscillations of the organic metal $θ$-(ET)$_4$ZnBr$_4$(C$_6$H$_4$Cl$_2$) in pulsed magnetic field of up to 81 T

Abstract

De Haas-van Alphen oscillations of the organic metal $θ$-(ET)$_4$ZnBr$_4$(C$_6$H$_4$Cl$_2$) are studied in pulsed magnetic fields up to 81 T. The long decay time of the pulse allows determining reliable field-dependent amplitudes of Fourier components with frequencies up to several kiloteslas. The Fourier spectrum is in agreement with the model of a linear chain of coupled orbits. In this model, all the observed frequencies are linear combinations of the frequency linked to the basic orbit $α$ and to the magnetic-breakdown orbit $β$.
