Abstract
We discuss the possibility of deciding on the symmetry of the superconducting phase in the organic superconductors (Bechgaard salts), using tunnelling experiments. We first briefly review the properties of organic superconductors, and the possibility to have unconventional (triplet) superconductivity in these systems. We then present a simple scheme for computing the full current-voltage characteristics for tunnelling experiments within the framework of the non-equilibrium Keldysh Green function formalism. This formalism is flexible enough to address different pairing symmetries combined with magnetic fields and finite temperatures at arbitrary bias voltages. We then discuss extensively how to apply these results to probe for the symmetry of the superconducting order parameter.
