Photophysical properties of C60
James W. Arbogast,Aleksander P. Darmanyan,Christopher S. Foote,Yves Rubin,François Diederich,Marcos M. Alvarez,Samir J. Anz,Robert L. Whetten +7 more
TL;DR: A number of important photophysical properties of C{sub 60} have been determined, including its lowest triplet state energy (near 33 kcal/mol), lifetime, and triplet-triplet absorption spectrum as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the soluble all-carbon molecules C60 and C70
Henry O. Ajie,Marcos M. Alvarez,Samir J. Anz,Rainer D. Beck,François Diederich,K. Fostiropoulos,Donald R. Huffman,Wolfgang Kraetschmer,Yves Rubin +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the physical and chemical characterization of two new molecular forms of carbon, C{sub 60} and C {sub 70} were reported. But the results demonstrate a high yield of production (14%) under optimized conditions and reveal only C{ sub 60 and Csub 70 in measurable quantity, in an 85:15 ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Higher Fullerenes: Isolation and Characterization of C76, C84, C90, C94, and C70O, an Oxide of D5h-C70
François Diederich,Roland Ettl,Yves Rubin,Robert L. Whetten,Rainer D. Beck,Marcos M. Alvarez,Samir J. Anz,Dilip K. Sensharma,Fred Wudl,K. C. Khemani,A. Koch +10 more
TL;DR: The toluene extract of the fluffy carbon material produced by resistive heating of graphite contains a variety of molecules larger than C60 and C70 in a total amount of 3 to 4% by weight that are identified as higher fullerenes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alkali-Fulleride Superconductors: Synthesis, Composition, and Diamagnetic Shielding
Karoly Holczer,Olivier Klein,S.-M. Huang,Richard B. Kaner,Ke Jian Fu,Robert L. Whetten,François Diederich +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of mixing and heat treatment of K{sub chiC{sub 60} samples prepared over a wide range of initial compositions on the superconducting transition was determined from shielding diamagnetism measurements.
