Abstract

Hot C60 molecules under nanosecond laser excitation decay by a variety of fragmentation channels. An experimental search has been made to determine the excitation temperature of fragmented C60via analyzing the momentum distributions of the prompt ionic fragments Cn+ (n ≤ 58). It was found that all the C60 precursors appearing as these ionic fragments have almost the same temperature and the temperature shows little variation with the laser fluences in our limited range. The results provide a clear evidence that a first-order phase transition in the fragmented C60 is occurring at this temperature. The value of phase transition temperature is found to be about 6050 ± 250 K, which is in a good agreement with the most recent estimations based on the molecular dynamics simulation. This approach offers an experimental opportunity for studying the fragmentation thermodynamics of more complex polyatomic molecules under excitation temperature determined conditions.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
