CHARGE-TRANSFER AND BOND RELAXATION IN FULLERENE

The Jahn-Teller effect in C-60 induces the bond distortion during an e lectron is transferred into a neutral C-60 With the symmetry Ih. The s tatic studies have proved that the negative ion C-60(-) has a polaron bond structure with the symmetry D-5d. This paper numerically simulate s the dynamics of the charge transfer and the bond relaxation, which d emonstrates the details of the evolution process with the time resolut ion in 4 femto seconds. The calculation shows that the relaxation time s is about 0.4ps, which is consistent with the experiments.
