M. Fiebererdmann et al., THE DYNAMICS OF THE DOUBLE PHOTOIONIZATION OF C-60, Zeitschrift fur Physik. D, Atoms, molecules and clusters, 26, 1993, pp. 308-310
The photoionization dynamics of C60 has been studied by means of synch
rotron radiation. The findings for single-photon ionization covering a
n energy range of 15 - 120 eV are presented and contrasted with other
experiments recently performed to elucidate the fragmentation and the
ionization behaviour of fullerenes as a result of relatively high ener
gy impact. In this context, special emphasis is paid to the temperatur
e dependencies, the actual ionization mechanism and the fragmentation
behaviour of ionic C60.
