Q? higher dimensionality of Fermi surface stabilize AF phase in b’-(ET)2AuCl2? • Methods: • Hamiltonian: • tight binding model (ET dimer model) • effective on-site (intra-dimer) Coulomb interaction • Perturbation theory: • FLEX-approximation

Summary • b’-(ET)2AuCl2 • AF phase is stabilized under applied pressures. • Reason: • Higher-dimensionality • U → better FS nesting
