Abstract
To get insight into the nature of the electronic fluid in the frustration-driven charge glasses, we investigate in-plane and out-of-plane charge transport for several quasitriangular-lattice organic systems: θ-(BEDT-TTF)_{2}X [X=RbZn(SCN)_{4}, CsZn(SCN)_{4}, and I_{3}]. These compounds host a charge order, charge glass, and Fermi liquid, depending on the strength of the charge frustration. We find that the resistivity exhibits extreme 2D anisotropy and contrasting temperature dependence between the in-plane and out-of-plane directions in the charge-glass phase, unlike in the charge order and metallic states. The experimental features indicate that the frustration-induced charge glass carries an anomalous 2D-confined electronic fluid with possible charge excitations other than conventional quasiparticles.
