Abstract
A carbon solid containing two carbon allotropes, C60 and graphite has been synthesized. In this solid, the two dimensional layers of C60, stacked in between every graphite layers, show long range ordering with average separation of 1.27 nm between C60 layers. Predominantly stage‐1 along with stage‐4 is obtained. An up‐shift in the graphite E2g2 Raman mode and a downshift in the C60 Raman Ag2 mode occurred due to a charge transfer and indicated highly conducting state of C60. This C60‐graphite intercalation compound can act as a host for co‐intercalation of alkali‐metals and may lead to a new superconductors.
