High-resolution 13C nuclear magnetic resonance in alkali intercalated fullerene C60

Abstract
We present the results of 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements on potassium and rubidium doped Buckminster fullerene C60 at room temperature. By using high‐resolution magic angle spinning NMR spectroscopy we were able to identify and characterize the different, thermodynamically stable phases. Based on an analysis of the different NMR spectra, we discuss the effects of the intercalation on the molecular dynamics as well as on the electronic properties in these compounds.
