Abstract

The crystal field in the disordered phase of C60-fullerite is derived from an intermolecular potential model, which takes into account the geometric difference between double bonds and single bonds. The angular dependence of the crystal field, resulting from an anticlockwise rotation of the molecule around the [111] axis, exhibits minima at angles of 98° and 38°. The discontinuity of the order parameter at the first order phase transition is calculated.
