Abstract
Disclosed is a fullerene film which can be easily formed by a wet process without deteriorating the intrinsic properties of a fullerene by using a fullerene derivative as a raw material. Also disclosed are a fullerene polymer, a method for producing a fullerene film, and a method for producing a fullerene polymer. A fullerene film or a fullerene polymer maintaining the intrinsic properties of the fullerene is obtained by coating a base with a solution of a fullerene derivative and then heating the thus-obtained coating film at a temperature higher than the thermal decomposition temperature of the fullerene derivative but lower than the thermal decomposition temperature of the fullerene.
