摘要
The influence of electron concentration in ionized carbon vapor on C-60 fullerene formation was theoretically investigated. By considering C-60 molecule assembly at one or two intermediate stages of cluster collision we determined the plasma parameters (temperature and electron concentration) optimal for the fullerene synthesis. The estimations made showed that waves of electron concentration in plasma changed the rate of C-60 fullerene assembling. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
