Abstract:
Carbon-based nanocomposites have attracted significant attention due to their unique properties and
potential for use in various technological applications. In this study, experimental investigations were conducted
to determine the spectral properties of carbon-containing nanocomposite polymer films based on polystyrene (PS)
with fullerene C60 nanoadditives. The results indicate that the incorporation of fullerene nanoparticles into the PS
matrix enhances the optical properties of the material. Specifically, the optical density of the samples increases,
the absorption coefficient increases, and the width of the bandgap decreases with an increase in carbon additive
concentration. These findings suggest that fullerene-based nanocomposites are promising materials for
optoelectronic and nanotechnological applications. The results of this work contribute to the growing body of
research on carbon-based nanocomposites and their potential for use in a range of fields, including electronics,
energy storage, and sensing applications. The enhanced optical properties of fullerene-based nanocomposites
suggest that they may be particularly useful for developing novel optoelectronic devices and sensors. Overall, this
study highlights the potential of fullerene-based nanocomposites as a versatile and promising material platform
for various technological applications.
