Abstract
Magnetic-field-angle-resolved heat capacity of dimer-Mott organic superconductors is reported (BEDT-TTF and represent bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene and a monovalent anion, respectively). Temperature and field dependence of heat capacity indicates that the superconductivity has line nodes on the Fermi surface, which is a typical feature of -wave superconductivity. In-plane field-angle dependence exhibits fourfold oscillations as well as twofold oscillations due to anisotropy of superconducting gap functions. From analyses of the fourfold term, the gap symmetry is determined as for and for . We suggest that the symmetry difference comes from the competition of and antiferromagnetic fluctuations depending on lattice geometry.
