  • Abstract
    Pressure-induced polymerization in crystalline C60 has been investigated theoretically within a semi-empirical quantum chemical method. The model calculations reveal that distortion of the C60 molecules plays an essential role in the pressure-induced polymerization. The drastic difference in experimental conditions for the polymerization and the depolymerization are reasonably explained from the model calculation.
