de Haas-van Alphen measurements made on the organic metal beta "-(BEDT-TTF)
(2)SF5CH2CF2SO3 reveal the existence of an ideal two-dimensional (2D) Fermi
surface, but rather than having the conventional sawtooth wave form that i
s normally observed in all other 2D electron gases, instead, an "inverse sa
wtooth'' wave form is observed, which is to be expected when the chemical p
otential is pinned at a constant value. While this proves the existence of
the theoretically predicted quasi-one-dimensional band, it further implies
that this band has an exceptionally large density of states.
