The structure and mechanical properties of crystalline whiskers with an average diameter of 600 nm, composed of C-60 Molecules were studied by transmission electron microscopy combined with nanonewton force measurements used in atomic force microscopy. C-60 nanowhiskers with a bodycentered tetragonal structure are compressed along their long axis. Young's modulus of the C-60 nanowhiskers was estimated to be 28 +/- 5 GPa. The buckling stress was correlated to the aspect ratio of length to diameter of the C-60 nanowhiskers. The (100) surface was the principal fracture surface of the C-60 nanowhiskers.
