Abstract
In this paper we review theory and experiment on the photopolymerization of solid C60 and related C60 polymers. In addition, we summarize experimental results on a second interesting phototransformation in solid C60, viz., the photo-enhanced doping, or diffusion, of molecular oxygen into the interstitial voids in the host lattice. Both of these phototransformations render the transformed solids insoluble in organic solvents, and this property has been patented for applications as photoresists[l]. Using vibrational spectroscopy as a tool, we discuss recent infrared and Raman studies of the photopolymer and other C60 polymers produced at high pressure and high temperature (HPHT). Finally, recent results on the identification of charge transfer excitons in solid C60 will be given. These optical excitations have been proposed as the “trigger mechanism” for the photopolymerization process[2].
