13. The results presented here are obtained using density functional perturbation theory (Ref.) within the local density approximation (LDA) as implemented in the quantum espresso package (Ref.). We employed norm-conserving pseudopotentials (Ref.) and a plane wave basis set with a cutoff of 70 Ry. Dynamical matrices were calculated on a (2) 3 grid in reciprocal (q space), and phonon dispersions and DOS were then obtained by Fourier transformation of the real-space force constants. For the self-consistent calculations of phonon frequencies, we employed a (2) 3 grid in k space.

26. - 1 near the zone boundary. Convergence of these low-energy acoustic modes is a well-known problem also in graphite-related systems and can require very large plane-wave cutoffs (Ref.), which are prohibitive in this case. However, we find that all intramolecular modes are well converged with accuracies of ~ 1 %.

30. c = 35.86 K. Note also that the inter- and intramolecular phonons, which play very different roles in the transport properties of organic crystals, should also play different roles in superconductivity due to the different adiabatic ratio (Ref.).
