Theoretical Insights into Fullerenes Adsorbed on Surfaces: Comparison with STM Studies

  • Chapter
Advances in Scanning Probe Microscopy

Part of the book series: Advances in Materials Research ((ADVSMATERIALS,volume 2))

Summary

Theoretical investigations of electronic structures and other characteristics of fullerenes (C60, etc.) using all-electron mixed basis approaches, which are superior to pseudopotential approaches with regard to core treatments, are reviewed in connection with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) measurements of fullerenes adsorbed on substrates. A universal feature of the Partial Density of States (PDOS) of the HOMO and LUMO levels is discussed and compared successfully with STM images measured by Hashizume et al. When electron charge transfer occurs from substrates, it is pointed out that anomalous intermolecular interactions may appear between fullerenes, due to induced dipoles. This possibility is discussed in detail using a simple analysis. On the other hand, when fullerene samples are irradiated by laser light etc., it is pointed out that, due to electronic excitations, special fullerene orientation may be favored at surfaces. This behavior is explained in terms of an ab initio result for low-temperature simple cubic phases of C60. Some STM experimental evidence concerning these new features of fullerenes is briefly described and compared with theory.
