Fullerene powder, sublimed, 99.9+% C{60}

Description

CAS: 99685-96-8 | C60 | 720.66 g/mol

The optical absorption properties of C60 match solar spectrum in a way that suggests that C60-based films could be useful for photovoltaic applications. Because of its high electronic affinity it is one of the most common electron acceptor used in donor/acceptor based solar cells.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
