Abstract
We report the first precise measurement of the positron-electron momen tum distribution in an organic superconducting single crystal kappa-(B EDT-TTF)2Cu[N(CN)2] Br by the 2D-ACAR method. The anisotropy in the ra w spectrum has the appropriate symmetry and is consistent with the str ucture factors of the space group of the crystal. The LCW-folded k-spa ce density is discussed and compared with the Fermi surface prediction of a HMO calculation. Substantial discrepancies between the experimen tal results and the existing theory are found.
