The application belongs to the technical field of crystalline
fullerene derivatives, and particularly relates to a method for preparing large-size
fullerene crystals and
magnesium intercalated two-dimensional
fullerene crystals with high yield. 60 The
crystal particles are mixed with a
magnesium source, and then are placed in a reaction container. The mixture is subjected to
solid-phase heat treatment under
inert atmosphere or vacuum condition, so that
magnesium atoms are intercalated into the fullerene crystals and adjacent fullerene molecules are induced to occur two-dimensional covalent
polymerization. The product is directly collected in situ to obtain magnesium intercalated two-dimensional fullerene crystals. In the application, the fullerene
raw material and the magnesium source are separately placed on one side of the reaction container, vacuum is drawn, then the
raw material side is set as a high-temperature zone, the other side is set as a low-temperature zone for heating, and finally the low-temperature zone product is collected to obtain C 60
crystal particles. The application significantly improves the reactant
utilization rate and the product collection efficiency through
solid-
phase conversion of the fullerene
crystal precursor.
