Influence of Electric and Magnetic Fields on Photoconductivity of C₆₀ Single Crystal

Abstract

It is shown, that the photoconductivity of C₆₀ single crystal essentially depends on a spin state of the intermediate electron‐hole pairs. The distance between components of electron‐hole pairs in states with uncorrelated spins and their lifetime were estimated as R≥3.4 nm and τ∼10⁻⁹ s.

Keywords:

• C₆₀ single crystal
