Abstract
We report the in-plane microwave surface impedance of a high-quality single crystal of -(BEDT-TTF)Cu[N(CN)]Br. In the superconducting state, we find three independent signatures of -wave pairing: (i) a strong, linear temperature dependence of superfluid density; (ii) deep in the superconducting state the quasiparticle scattering rate ; and (iii) no BCS coherence peak is observed in the quasiparticle conductivity. Above , the Kadowaki-Woods ratio and the temperature dependence of the in-plane conductivity show that the normal state is a Fermi liquid below K, yet resilient quasiparticles dominate the transport up to K.
