摘要
The local magnetic induction is measured in, the quasi-two dimensional organic superconductor kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2) Cu(NCS)(2) by using a micro Hall probe. The small step is observed on the temperature dependence of the local magnetic induction. This result implies the existence of the first-order phase transition of the vortex system in this organic superconductor as is already reported in, high-T-c oxide and other organic superconductors.
