Jl. Sauvajol et al., LOW-TEMPERATURE ANOMALIES IN PHOTOLUMINESCENCE OF (C-60)(1-X)-(C-70)(X) SOLID-SOLUTIONS, Solid state communications, 88(9), 1993, pp. 693-698
In this communication, is reported a detailed analysis of the temperat
ure dependence of the photoluminescence measured on (C-60)(1-x)-(C-70)
(x) thin films (x in the range: 0, <7%). We show that an additional em
ission peak at 1.77 eV appears below 90 K in the (C-60)(1-x)-(C-70)(x)
mixed compounds (x>0). The intensity of this peak is closely related
to the amount of C-70 (the x value) in the (C-60)(1-x)-(C-70)(x) films
(at least in the [0<x <7%] range). In the [10 K-90 K] temperature ran
ge, its intensity significantly increases when the temperature decreas
es. Nevertheless the origin of this peak is unclear and the assignment
of the enhancement of the 1.77 eV emission peak intensity below 90 K
to the photoluminescence signature of the ''glass phase transition'' i
n the (C-60)(1-x)-(C-70)(x) mixed compounds is discussed.
