The organic conductors (TMTSF)2PF6 and (TMTSF)2ClO4 are model systems to study the Luttinger-liquid behavior in one dimension. We have investigated the dc and microwave transport properties along the a, b′, and c* directions. In the normal state of (TMTSF)2PF6 below T=70 K, the dc resistivity follows a power-law with ρa and ρb′ proportional to T2 while ρc*∝ T. Above T = 100 K the exponents extracted from the data for the a and c* axes are consistent with what is to be expected for a system of coupled one-dimensional chains (Luttinger liquid) and a dimensional crossover at a temperature of about 100 K. The b′ axis shows anomalous exponents that could be attributed to a large crossover between these two regimes. The organic superconductor (TMTSF)2ClO4 is more a two-dimensional metal with an anisotropy ρa/ρb′ of approximately 2 at all temperatures. Such a low anisotropy is unexpected in view of the transfer integrals. Slight indications to one-dimensionality are found in the temperature dependent transport only above 200 K. Even along the least conducting c* direction no region with semiconducting behavior is revealed up to room temperatu
