Depolarized light scattering from thin fullerenes confined between graphite walls—computer simulations

The molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of fullerene cluster (C60)19, confined between graphite walls, have been performed. The fullerenes form two monolayers parallel to the graphite planes. The polarizability anisotropy correlation function G(t) and depolarized light scattering spectrum I(ν) have been calculated for several distances between graphite walls. Both G(t) and I(ν) reflect the complicated dynamics of fullerenes resulting from the interplay between C60–C60 and C60–graphite wall interaction potentials.
