Abstract
De Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) measurements in the two dimensional organic superconductor kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2)Cu(NCS)(2) have been performed down to .44K in a wide magnetic field range up to 30T. In the range between 20T and 30T, we find dHvA frequencies corresponding to the closed (al pha) and magnetic breakdown (beta) orbits, and many combination freque ncies of alpha and beta as well. The observation of the combination fr equencies beta-alpha and 2 beta-2 alpha is not understood by conventio nal theories because both the torque and magnetic interaction effects are negligibly small. The effective masses and the field dependence of these oscillations are reported.
