Superconducting Fullerene Nanowhiskers

Superconducting Fullerene Nanowhiskers

We synthesized superconducting fullerene nanowhiskers (C<sub>60</sub>NWs) by potassium (K) intercalation. They showed large superconducting volume fractions, as high as 80%. The superconducting transition temperature at 17 K was independent of the K content (x) in the ran...
