Abstract
Fullerene nanowhiskers were prepared from a toluene solution of C60 and isopropyl alcohol by a liquid-liquid precipitation method. The samples on the silicon (100) wafer were heated at the elevated temperatures ranging from 400 °C through 800 °C by an electron beam bombardment in an ultra-high vacuum, and their thermal stability was investigated with a scanning Auger-electron microprobe. At 400 °C fullerene nanowhiskers already got thinner, while bulky fullerene crystals still remained even at 800 °C. And many craters were observed around the fullerene crystals on the Si(100) substrate.
