The intermediate state of (TMTSF)/sub 2/ClO/sub 4/ is characterized by resistance and magnetoresistance, and susceptibility measurements to consist of an inhomogeneous mixture of superconducting and spin-density-wave regions, whereas the quenched state is purely insulating with a phase-transition temperature T/sub SDW/ = 6.05 K and a zero-temperature gap 2..delta..(0) = 22 K = 3.52T/sub SDW/ close to the mean-field value.
