Abstract

Temperature dependence of the photoluminescence of C60 in CS2, as a typical example of the formation of C60 aggregates by the liquid-solid transition of solution, and the photoluminescence of C60 in room-temperature benzene-ethanol mixtures of different compositions are presented. By comparing the photoluminescence spectra of C60 in benzene-ethanol mixtures with those of C60 in solution (toluene, benzene and CS2) and C60 single-crystal, it has been found that the drastic spectral change in photoluminescence spectra of C60 in benzene-ethanol mixtures of different compositions are strongly ascribed to the formation of C60 aggregates. Moreover, it has been found that the energy of maximum intensity and the spectral shape in the room-temperature photoluminescence of C60 aggregates in benzene-ethanol mixtures are not sensitive to the ethanol volume fraction.
