Fragmentation of C60 Molecules in Partially Ionized Fullerene Beam Deposition

MRS Online Proceedings Library Aims and scope

Abstract

C60 films have been deposited using a partially ionized cluster beam deposition (PIBD) technique. The experimental results show that as Va exceeds about 400 V almost all the C60 molecules fragmentate at collision with the substrate and the obtained films turn to be amorphous carbon layers at elevated Va indicated by measurements of Raman spectra, X-ray diffraction, and ellipsometry.
