The electronic state of (TMTTF)(2)SbF6 was investigated by the H-1 and C-13 NMR measurements. The temperature dependence of T-1(-1) in H-1 NMR shows a sharp peak associated with the antiferromagnetic transition at T-AF = 6 K. The temperature dependence of T-1(-1) is described by the power law T-2.4 below T-A. This suggests the nodal gapless spin wave excitation in antiferromagnetic phase. In 13C NMR, two sharp peaks at high temperature region, associated with the inner and the outer carbon sites in TMTTF dimer, split into four peaks below 150 K. It indicates that the charge disproportionation occurs. The degree of charge disproportionation Delta rho is estimated as (025 +/- 0.09)e from the chemical shift difference. This value Delta rho is consistent with that obtained from the infrared spectroscopy. In the antiferromagnetic state (AFI), the observed line shape is well fitted by eight Lorentzian peaks. This suggests that the charge order with the same degree still remains in the AF state. From the line assignment, the AF staggered spin amplitude is obtained as 0.70 mu(B) and 0.24 mu(B) at the charge rich and the poor sites, respectively. These values corresponding to almost 1 mu(B) per (timer are quite different from 0.11 mu(B) of another AF (AFII) state in (TMITF)(2)Br with effective higher pressure. As a result, it is understood that the antiferromagnetic staggered spin order is stabilized on the CO state in the AFI phase of (TMTTF)2(S)bF(6).
