Abstract
The nonresonant third‐order hyperpolarizability of all‐carbon molecules C60 is measured by nanosecond degenerate four‐wave‐mixing experiment in C60 toluene solution. The value of γ1111 measured is 1.6×10−31 esu, which corresponds to an estimated value of the third‐order nonlinear optical susceptibility χ(3)1111E = 3.3 × 10−9 esu for the solid compound.

Characterization of the soluble all-carbon molecules C60 and C70

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.
