Abstract
The particular chromophoric structure of C70Ph10 (see picture), which consi sts of two cage-centered pi -electron systems, makes its photophysical prop erties an exception to those found for other phenylated [70]fullerenes C70P h2n (n = 2-4). For these other C70Ph2n species, their intrinsic photophysic al properties undergo smooth transitions as a function of n.
