This paper describes a band-filling-controlled Mott transition at an interface of an organic field effect transistor. Conductance and Hall coefficient of a thin crystal of an organic Mott-insulator laminated onto a SiO2/Si substrate were measured under various gate electric fields at low temperature. The maximum field effect mobility of this device reached 94 cm 2 /Vs. The carrier density at finite positive gate voltages corresponds to that of a metallic state of this material, rather than that
