Abstract

Cantilever magnetometry has been used to measure the upper critical magnetic field H(c2) of the quasi-one-dimensional molecular organic superconductor (TMTSF)2ClO4. From simultaneous resistivity and torque magnetization experiments conducted under precise field alignment, H(c2) at low temperature is shown to reach 5 T, nearly twice the Pauli paramagnetic limit imposed on spin singlet superconductors. These results constitute the first thermodynamic evidence for a large H(c2) in this system and provide support for spin triplet pairing in this unconventional superconductor.
