More detailed absorption transitions of C60 in the visible region are observed from the third-order derivative absorption spectra.The spectra are fitted with Lorentzian line shapes,and the transition energies are determined.The assignment of the transitions in visible region is discussed,some vibronic modes are given,and finally the energy gap of C60 molecule is determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
