Intermolecular interactions and the nature of orientational ordering in the solid fullerenes C 60 and C 70

Abstract

We have proposed an intermolecular potential for C 60 molecules that not only reproduces the correct low-temperature structure, but also correlates a wide range of experimental properties, including the molecular reorientational time in the room-temperature rotator phase, the volume change at the orientational ordering transition, and the librational frequencies in the low-temperature phase. The low- pressure phases in solid C 70 have been explored using constant-pressure molecular dynamics and an intermolecular potential derived from one that gives an excellent account of the properties of solid C 60 . The molecular dynamics calculations predict three low-pressure phases: a high-temperature rotator phase, a partly ordered phase with trigonal symmetry, and an ordered monoclinic phase. The calculations on C 70 were carried out on a cluster of IBM RS/6000s, operating in parallel.
