  • Abstract
    Summary form only given, as follows. Doping alkali and other metals into C60 has been found to bring about superconducting states with various TCs up to 33 K for RbCs2C60) In addition, we report observation of superconductivity with TC ~ 29 K in C60 doped with pure Cs metal). The latter having a small superconducting volume fraction, was found to disappear by extended annealing. In the present work, we achieved a substantial improvement in the superconducting volume fraction by doping of alkali metals through the thermal decomposition of alkali azides. A systematic study on the superconductivity and structure of C60 doped with alkali (Na, K, Rb, Cs) and other metals, for different combination and compositions.
