Abstract
MicroRaman spectroscopy has been used to investigate the products of l aser-induced cage opening reactions in fullerite films. Laser irradiat ion of fullerite under oxidative conditions produces a conversion to a morphous carbon. The analysis of the Raman spectra suggests the format ion of a partially ordered a-C phase. The relation between its structu re and the fullerene fragmentation process is discussed.
