Abstract

We study the multipole plasmon mode frequencies of a pair of C60 molecules by means of the linearized hydrodynamic theory for electronic excitations on the each C60 surface. We apply the two-center spherical coordinate system for mathematical convenience and find an explicit form of the surface plasmon energies. Numerical result shows when approaching the two C60 molecules, the coupling between the bare plasmon modes leads to the appearance of additional modes having energies that are different from those of the isolated C60 molecules.
