Abstract

A new equation of state for fullerite C60 is derived in the framework of the quantum-statistical method. This equation includes two Grüneisen parameters responsible for vibration–rotational and intramolecular contributions of fullerene molecules, which are represented in the form of isotropic quantum oscillators. The intramolecular vibrations of carbon atoms are described by the Debye heat capacity theory, and the cold contribution to the free energy is calculated using the Lennard–Jones pair potential for fullerene molecules. The theory is in a very good agreement with the experiment.
