Incoherent interlayer electron hopping as a possible reason for enhanced magnetic quantum oscillations in the mixed state of a layered organic superconductor

Gvozdikov, V. M.; Wosnitza, J.

We present a theory which is able to explain enhanced magnetic quantum-oscillation amplitudes in the superconducting state of a layered organic metal with incoherent electronic transport across the layers. The incoherence acts through the deformation of the layer-stacking factor which becomes complex and decreases the total scattering rate in the mixed state. This novel mechanism restores the coherence by establishing a long-range order across the layers and can compensate the usual decrease of the Dingle factor below the upper critical magnetic field caused by the intralayer scattering.
