▎ 摘 要
We report the preparation of novel quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) C-60 nanostructures on rippled graphene. Through careful control of the subtle balance between the linear periodic potential of rippled graphene and the C-60 surface mobility, we demonstrate that C-60 molecules can be arranged into a quasi-1D C-60 chain structure with widths of two to three molecules. At a higher annealing temperature, the quasi-1D chain structure transitions to a more compact hexagonal close packed quasi-1D stripe structure. This first experimental realization of quasi-1D C-60 structures on graphene may pave a way for fabricating new C-60/graphene hybrid structures for future applications in electronics, spintronics and quantum information.
