Optical anisotropy in fullerene-containing polymer composites induced by magnetic field

https://doi.org/10.17586/2220-8054-2022-13-5-503-508

Abstract

Using water-soluble hydrated fullerenes embedded in a polyvinyl alcohol matrix, samples were obtained that demonstrated the presence of optical anisotropy when they were formed in a magnetic field. Its existence was established in experiments on light scattering in films containing C60(OH)n and C70(OH)m molecules. The mechanism of the effect is presumably associated with the anisotropy of the shape of these molecules.
