Abstract C60 films have been grown in ultra high vacuum on various crystalline substrates and the structure of the films has been investigated by low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS). The C60 films form randomly oriented nanocrystals on Si(100), mesoscopic polycrystals on GaSe(0001) and microscopic single crystals on GeS(001). The vibrational structure of the C60/substrate interfaces is analyzed in detail by HREELS carried out in the dipole and impact scattering regimes. It is shown that the epitaxy of C60 on GeS(001) is induced by the weak van der Waals bonding and the peculiar corrugation of the substrate surface.
