- The heat capacity C of fullerite doped with deuteromethane (CD4)(0.4)(C-60) has been investigated in the temperature interval 1.2-120K. The contribution Delta C-CD4 of the CD4 molecules to the heat capacity C has been isolated. It is shown that at T approximate to 120K the rotational motion of CD4 molecules in the octahedral voids of the C-60 lattice is weakly hindered. When the temperature is lowered to 80K, the rotational motion of the CD4 molecules changes from weakly hindered rotation to libration. In the range T = 1.2-30 K, Delta C-CD4 is described quite accurately by the sum of contributions from the translational and librational vibrations and tunneling rotation of CD4 molecules. The contribution of tunneling rotation to the heat capacity Delta C-CD4(T) is dominant below 5K. The effect of nuclear-spin conversion of the CD4 molecules on the heat capacity has been observed and the characteristic times for nuclear spin conversion between the lowest levels of the A- and T-species of CD4 molecules at T < 5K have been estimated. A feature observed in Delta C-CD4(T) near T = 5.5K is most likely a manifestation of a first-order phase transition in the orientational glass form of the solution.

- The specific heat at constant pressure C(T) of bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) closed at their ends has been investigated in the temperature interval of 2–120 K. It is found that the curve C(T) has features near 5, 36, 80, and 100 K. The experimental results on the C(T) and the radial thermal expansion coefficient αR(T) of bundles of SWNTs oriented perpendicular to the sample axis have been compared. It is found that the curves C(T) and αR(T) exhibit a similar temperature behavior at T > 10 K. The temperature dependence of the Grüneisen coefficient γ(T) has been calculated. The curve γ(T) also has a feature near 36 K. Above 36 K the Grüneisen coefficient is practically independent of temperature (γ ≈ 4). Below 36 K, γ(T) decreases monotonically with lowering temperature and becomes negative at T < 6 K.
