Abstract

Reflectance (R) and trasmittance (T) of C60 single-crystals have been measured in the 400-5000 cm-1 range, at room temperature, by using micro-Fourier transform IR spectroscopy. The frequencies of the peaks, appearing in both R and T spectra, are compared with the IR active ones calculated for the simple cubic structure with the bond charge model. It appears that all modes which are expected from symmetry arguments to give a dipole activity are actually observed and the corresponding frequencies are in good agreement with the experimental findings.
