High-resolution angle-integrated photoemission of one monolayer of C-60 chemisorbed on Ag(100) shows the reversible opening of a gap at the Fermi level at temperatures 25 less than or equal to T less than or equal to 300 K.

Abstract

High-resolution angle-integrated photoemission of one monolayer of C-60 chemisorbed on Ag(100) shows the reversible opening of a gap at the Fermi level at temperatures 25 less than or equal to T less than or equal to 300 K. The gap reaches a maximum value of approximate to 10 meV at T less than or equal to 70 K. This finding is the first evidence of an electronic phase transition in C-60 monolayers and has implications on the ongoing debate about surface superconductivity in C-60-based bulk materials
