Abstract
The optical properties of fullerenes embedded in other media is explor ed, assuming that a single fullerene behaves as a microscopic crystall ite. The justification for this assumption is discussed, and various e xperimental results are compared to test the limits of this approximat ion. The effective medium theory is used to calculate the optical resp onse of exemplary composite systems.
