description

We present the results of $^{13}\mathrm{C}$ NMR experiments in an organic superconductor with localized Fe spins ${\ensuremath{\beta}}^{\ensuremath{''}}\ensuremath{-}{(\text{BEDT-}\mathrm{TTF})}_{4}[({\mathrm{H}}_{3}\mathrm{O})\mathrm{Fe}{({\mathrm{C}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{4})}_{3}]\ifmmode\cdot\else\textperiodcentered\fi{}{\mathrm{C}}_{6}{\mathrm{H}}_{5}\mathrm{Br}$. We reveal the antiferromagnetic coupling between Fe $d$ spins and $\ensuremath{\pi}$ spins, which creates an exchange field antiparallel to the external field direction at the $\ensuremath{\pi}$ electrons. In addition to the static effects of Fe spins, we show from the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate measurement that the magnetic fluctuations generated by Fe spins are suppressed at low temperatures and high magnetic fields. These conditions are suitable to stabilize the field-induced superconductivity by the field compensation mechanism. After the suppression of Fe-spin dynamics by a magnetic field of 19 T, we observed the underlying $\ensuremath{\pi}$-electron contribution. We discuss a possible anomaly in the $\ensuremath{\pi}$-electron system.
