Abstract

We report on the preparation of C60/C70 by the arc method. Evidence of monofunctional C60O, and C60-CH2 has been observed by mass spectrometry. Dependent on their preparation conditions, high resolution transmission electron microscopy of crystals consisting of mixtures of C60/C70 show different structure. Needle-like crystals grown from toluene show superlattice formation while single crystals obtained by sublimation have fcc structure. UV-VIS-absorption spectra in toluene are compared to those of films of various thickness and crystallinity.
