Organic magnetism finally demystified
Jan 1, 2001
Although superconductivity in carbon-60 - the chief member of the fullerene family - has attracted a great deal of attention lately, the magnetic properties of the molecule have intrigued physicists since they were first reported in 1991. In the last nine years, several groups have confirmed that electron-doped carbon-60 is ferromagnetic. However, they have also noticed strange discrepancies in the molecule's magnetic properties.
