The ultrafast non-linear optical dynamics of C-60 thin films were inve
stigated at low excitation levels. The pump-probe response observed at
low power is found to differ significantly from the ultrafast non-exp
onential behavior observed at higher intensity. It is determined that
the ultrafast relaxation processes measured at higher fluence levels a
re affected by phototransformation of C-60. (C) 1996 American Institut
