Abstract

Electron energy-loss spectroscopy was used to monitor structural damage to solid C60 as a function of electron exposure. The characteristic dose was found to be in the range 300–700 C/cm2 for incident energies in the range 100–200 keV and specimen temperatures between 100 and 300 K. The absolute value of this dose, and its energy and temperature dependence, suggest that the damage mechanism is predominantly electronic rather than knock-on displacement.
