Comparative study of ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic modifications of TDAE-C60

The magnetic properties of two different modifications of TDAE-C60 have been studied with the ESR and 1H NMR. Well-annealed single crystals display a transition to a ferromagnetically ordered state as confirmed by the observation of the ferromagnetic resonance. On the other hand the magnetic ground state of the non-ferromagnetic modification is consistent with the singlet ground state. The gap between the singlet and low laying triplet excited state opens below 11 K and reaches about 15 K at 5 K. A possible structural differences and their impact on the observed magnetic properties of the two modifications are discussed.
