    In the present investigation, we have studied the role of interband pair transfer processes on isotope effect in layered TTF[Ni(dmit)2]2 systems. For this purpose we have considered two chain Hubbard model that includes the intra and intermolecular vibrations in the presence of electron Coulomb energy and the electron transfer energy between the chains. Such a model calculations will be applicable for the organic superconductors where molecular layered structures are available. We obtained the expressions for the superconducting order parameter, transition temperature and finally the isotope effect coefficient ( ) using double time Greens’s function equations of motion technique within BCS mean field approximation. Finally the numerical analysis show that isotope effect coefficient ( ) depends on the intra and interlayer molecular vibrations, the pair transfer processes and also on the superconducting transition temperature (Tc) in layered organic superconductors like TTF[Ni(dmit)2]2 . On the basis of our model calculations we have predicted the effects of the pair transfer processes, the density of states at Fermi level and the chemical pressure on the isotope effect coefficient which need to be tested through rigorous experimental investigations on these systems.
