Abstract

A variety of theoretical and experimental techniques have been utilised in the study of the vibronic coupling in Buckminsterfullerene and its related compounds. For any particular fullerene system the symmetry-allowed couplings between electrons and phonons have unique values that must be determined by experiment. The purpose of this work is to determine the magnitudes of the coupling constants for the eight vibrational modes of h g symmetry that are Jahn-Teller active in the T 1u ground electronic state of the C60 - ion.
