Abstract
We study photoionization of fullerenes and of fullerenes with encapsulated atoms. We present the calculation for the photoionization cross section of negative ions \(C_{60}^{-}\), describing the field of the fullerene shell by the Dirac bubble potential. The investigation of the dependence of the high-energy asymptotics on the shape of the model potential is carried out. We analyze the photoionization of an atom encapsulated into the fullerene. The energy dependence of the cross section may differ fundamentally from that for an isolated atom due to interference of the outgoing electron wave with that reflected by the fullerene shell. We analyze the inelastic processes in the fullerene shell that accompany the photoionization of the encapsulated atom. It appears to be possible to sum the perturbative series for photoelectron interaction with the fullerene shell. The probability of inelastic processes was found to be close to unity in the large interval of the photon energies.
