Orientational disorder and other aspects of C70 and films deposited on single-crystal substrates

摘要

C70 films deposited on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), Ag(l 10), Ag(lll) and Pt(llO) substrates have been investigated by scanning tunnelling microscopy. Interesting observations on novel molecular arrangements, as well as orientational disorder, are presented. Solid solutions of C6o and C70 show interesting packing of these molecules when deposited on HOPG.
