Abstract
The effect of crystal orientation on the photogeneration of free charge carriers was studied for C60 single crystals in a weak magnetic field. The photoconductivity sharply depends on the orientation of magnetic field with respect to the crystallographic directions, showing a 5–8% increase for seven axes of the C60 crystal.
