Abstract
The complex conductivity in polycrystalline C60 and C70 has been investigated for frequencies 20 Hz≤ν≤106 Hz and temperatures 10 K≤T≤750 K. The high-frequency dielectric constants eα= 2.6±0.1(C60) and e∞= 4.6±0.1 (C70) were deduced from these experiments. The observed low temperature relaxation process in C60 fits well into the relaxation dynamics of the C60 molecules as determined by many other experimental techniques operating on very different time scales. In addition to the study of the dipolar relaxation process, the dc and ac conductivities were determined. From the temperature dependence of the dc conductivities energy barriers of EG=1.75±0.1 eV (C60) and EG=1.7±0.1 eV (C70) were estimated. In C70 we found indications for small polaron tunneling.
