RAMAN SCATTERING AND SUPERCONDUCTIVITY OF AxC60

Abstract
Raman scattering measurements of line width variations in A x C 60 ultrathin films provide detailed information on vibrational coupling of H g or A g modes relevant to superconductivity. In situ, UHV studies of 400A thick Rb 3 C 60 and K 3 C 60 films indicate somewhat similar behavior, suggesting the predominance of low frequency H g (2) radial modes for electron-phonon coupling. Measurements of nonsuperconducting Na x C 60 in ultrathin films, in contrast, yield reduced line broadening effects for H g (8) and H g (2) modes relative to Rb and K materials.
