Epitaxial growth of single-crystalC60on mica by helium-atom scattering

HREELS study of the intercalation of K atoms in C60 monolayers

“…The phonons of fullerite, i.e. the pure C 60 crystal, have been studied thoroughly by using far-infrared and Raman spectroscopies [3], inelastic neutron scattering (INS) [4][5][6], and inelastic He scattering [7,8]. In addition to modifying the intramolecular vibrations because of charge transfer, the intercalation of alkali atoms in the fullerite lattice gives rise to new extramolecular phonons.…”

“…2 Another important motive for thin-film studies in that single fullerite crystals with large flat surfaces have not yet been obtained; 6 epitaxially grown thin films might serve as a basis for crystal growth. The substrate materials that have been used comprise metals, [7][8][9][10][11] semiconductors, 12-20 layered materials, [21][22][23][24][25] insulators, [26][27][28][29][30] and organic films. 31 Some of these studies concerned only submonolayers or monolayers, others considered multilayers.…”

“…При температурах порядка ком-натной наблюдаются обе структуры плотной упаков-ки, как кубическая гранецентрированная, так и гек-сагональная [112][113][114][115][116][117][118][119]. Расстояние между ближай-шими соседями при комнатной температуре согласно этим измерениям составляет а = 1,001 ± 0,001 нм, причем погрешность связана и с тем, что образцы напылялись на разных подложках.…”
