摘要
The 1-（3-methoxycarbonyl） propyl-1-phenyl-（6,6）C61 （also called PCBM） is a C60 derivative widely used as an electron-acceptor in organic solar cells. To date, all the infrared spectra reported are experimental, mainly because of the calculations needed to study these structures are highly time-consuming. In this report we address for the first time the infrared spectrum calculation of PCBM with Cs symmetry by using the PW91/dnp level as implemented in the Dmol3 code. In this calculation we have found two intense peaks in the IR spectrum, that agree fairly with the 1187 and 1787 cm^-1 measured experimentally.
