Abstract:Vacuum-sublimation cryogenic deposition (VS-CD) method is successfully applied to produce fullerene water colloidal solution (FWCS): the melting of the solid phase of the mixture obtained by joint condensation of C60 fullerene and water vapors onto a surface cooled with liquid nitrogen results in formation of a stable colloidal solution. The results of the FWCS characterization by means of Raman, IR, and UV-Vis spectroscopy and their comparison with known literature data on hydrated fullerenes give the authors… Show more
