Abstract

The electrical resistivity and X-ray oscillation photograph measurements for an MMX-chain complex, Pt2(dtp)4I (dtp = C2H5CS2-), under high pressure were performed. We observed the most stable metallic phase (TMI = 70 K, under 2.2 GPa) in the 1-D purely d-electronic conductors and pressure-induced metal-insulator transition including the structural phase transition at 3.0 GPa.
