Spectral sensitization of the fullerene photoconductivity by organic dyes

The sensitization of the photoconductivity of C60 fullerene polycrystals by adsorbed molecules of organic dyes with the long-wavelength edge at up to 1300 nm is established. It is shown that the adsorption of dye molecules causes the sensitization associated with the formation of charge transfer complexes fullerene-sensitizer (in the region near 700 nm) and with the adsorbed dye (in the region from 800 to 1300 nm).
