<title>Production and study of metal-fullerene films</title>

Abstract

The present paper describes the metal-fullerene films production by thermal evaporation and condensation under vacuum. The condensation under vacuum. The necessary fullerene concentration in the film has been provided by maintaining a special relation between the rates of fullerene and metal atoms feed. The preformed research of structure of fullerenecontaining materials show that addition of C60 molecules to the metal coatings essentially reduces the structural elements sizes to nanometrical ones that can be used in production of nanostructural materials having unique properties. The obtained results on investigation of their physical and physico-chemical properties suggest broad potentials for application ofmetal-fullerene films.
