Abstract

A new C₆₀-polyoxometalate compound was synthesized by a C₆₀ derivative with a {SiW₁₁Mn} cluster connecting through a coordination bond and characterized. The photocurrent response test showed great improvement of this new compound compared to C₆₀ and the polyoxometalate precursor, which could be used as a potential photoelectric material.
