Abstract

Two-dimensional C60 polymers can be produced by treatment at high T and high p. Attempts have previously been made to intercalate these layered materials by alkali metals using the gas phase method but the polymers have always decomposed. We investigate here whether intercalated 2D polymers can be formed by other methods, such as by polymerization in the presence of alkali metals. Preliminary x-ray and Raman data can be interpreted to indicate the presence of an alkali metal intercalated tetragonal fullerene polymeric structure.
