  We present transport measurements along the least conducting c direction of
the organic superconductor (TMTSF)2ClO4, performed under an accurately aligned
magnetic field in the low temperature regime. The experimental results reveal a
two-dimensional confinement of the carriers in the (a,b) planes which is
governed by the magnetic field component along the b' direction. This 2-D
confinement is accompanied by a metal-insulator transition for the c axis
resistivity. These data are supported by a quantum mechanical calculation of
the transverse transport taking into account in self consistent treatment the
effect of the field on the interplane Green function and on the intraplane
scattering time.
