Notes:
Fe particles with sizes in the range 1–5 nm, formed by a gas-aggregation method and deposited onto graphite and C60 supports, were studied by x-ray photoemission spectroscopy, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, and magnetic linear dichroism. Clusters deposited onto a C60 coated graphite substrate become embedded within the fullerene film, and have an increased resistance to oxidation compared to exposed clusters supported on a graphite surface. No evidence for hybridization between the electronic states of Fe and C60 is seen. The magnetic dichroism signal of the exposed clusters increases sharply with the film thickness because of the increased cluster interactions. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
