We employ density-functional theory to calculate realistic parameters for an extended Hubbard model of the molecular metal TTF-TCNQ. Considering both intra- and intermolecular screening in the crystal, we confirm the importance of the suspected longer-range Coulomb interactions along the...

Optical experiments are reported for the metallic state of the linear chain compound (TMTSF)<Subscript>2</Subscript>ClO<Subscript>4</Subscript>. For the electric field polarized both along the highly (a) and intermediately (b′) conducting directions, a zero energy (ZE) mode and a finite energy mode (FE) are observed. The large anisotropy...</subscript></subscript>
