Superconductivity of Calcium C60 Intercalation Compound Synthesized by Shock-Wave Pressure

The C 60 fullerite has been Ca-intercalated under high pressure up to 240 kbar induced by a pressure shock wave. Magnetometric measurements have revealed superconductivity of the as-prepared sample at 9.9 K. The sample relaxed under normal conditions in the helium atmosphere has exhibited traces of...
