Abstract
We report a new route to the formation of less air sensitive fullerene superconductors using the mixture of C-60 and Alkaline-metal carbonat es. The materials so prepared contain oxygen in addition to the alkali ne metal dopants. The alkaline metal content determined from single cr ystal x-ray is found to be 2.4 instead of the stoichiometry 3.
