Abstract :
Zero-field-splitting parameters D and E for the fullerene C60 in its Jahn-Teller distorted triplet state were calculated and compared to recent experimental results. The E value vanishes due to symmetry, while we obtained a non-zero D value of D = −0.009 cm−1 in the D5d distorted lowest triplet state. The absolute value of D is in good agreement with experimental data, which suggests that the sign of D is negative.
