Abstract

The photoluminescence (PL), X-band ODMR. and LESR of C60 films and C60 isolated in a toluene/polystyrene glass matrix (C60:T/PS) is described. The delocalized triplet LESR and ODMR of C60:T/PS are similar to previously reported LESR. In films, however, the ODMR indicates that the delocalized triplet is larger and distorted by neighboring molecules. In addition, another, localized triplet, and a narrow PL-enhancing line at g = 2.0017 ± 0.0005 are observed. These features are similar to those observed in several π-conjugated polymers. The former is attributed to a localized triplet of size similar to a 5- or 6-membered ring, tentatively on a face adjacent to another C60 molecule; the latter is believed to result from intermolecular polaron recombination.
