We performed the STM Spectroscopy (STS) measurement on organic superconductor deuterated kappa-(ET-d[3,3])(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]Br to clarify the mechanism of superconductivity. The mechanism of superconductivity in kappa-ET2X is predicted as the spin fluctuation mechanism where the gap symmetry changes from d(x2-y2) to d(xy) with increasing the electron correlation. In previous STS measurements, we found that d[2,2]-Br, d[0,0]-Br and Cu(NCS)(2) were d-wave superconductors and the symmetry was described by the d(x2-y2). The electron correlation of these salts is still weak in the frame of the spin fluctuation model. So, we investigated the d[3,3]-Br which located at stronger electron correlation region than the previously studied salts by the STS. We also investigated the STS on the cut lateral surfaces by the focused ion beam (FIB) method to measure the in-plane anisotropy of superconducting gap in more detail as well as the asgrown surfaces, It was found from the result that d[3,3]-Br was d-wave superconductor and the gap symmetry was d(x2-y2) as well as the previously studied ET salts. Therefore, d[3,3]-Br is also still weak in spite of stronger electron correlation than other ET salts. On the other hand, we also observed the two-type superconducting gaps which are the nodal and anti-nodal type gaps at the same angle surface. This suggests the coexistence of d(x2-y2) and d(xy). It may be the evidence of the change from d(x2-y2) to d(xy) caused by the locally stronger electron correlation around the anti-ferromagnetic insulating region. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
