Popis: We present c-axis resistivity measurements performed on the organic conductors and under pressure. The aim is to probe the density of states of quasi-one dimensional compounds the high temperature properties of which are those of a Luttinger liquid. It is found that the 1-D Luttinger description breaks down below a specific pressure-dependent temperature, giving rise to a transient regime. The Fermi liquid behaviour is however restored at low temperature i.e. around 10 K, as evidenced by NMR measurements. Accordingly, two different energy scales 100 K and 10 K are required to get a fair understanding of all observed physical phenomena. Our interpretation supports the picture of a power law exponent for the correlation functions of the order of 0.25–0.30.
