Abstract

A force constant model for the vibrational modes in C60, based on bond-stretching and anglebending interactions, is presented. The results of this model are compared with the experimental data available from Raman, infrared, and high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopies, as well as neutron inelastic scattering measurements. Excellent agreement is obtained between the calculated and experimental mode frequencies. The pressure dependence of the Ramanand infrared-active mode frequencies is calculated within a simple model and is compared to available experimental data.
