Popis: This research examines the effects of magnetic processing, in the absence and presence of a strong magnetic field, on the morphological, electrochemical, and photoelectrochemical properties of electrodes modified with nanoclusters of a phenothiazine–C 60 linked compound with ten methylene group (PH(10)C 60 ). The morphologies of the PH(10)C 60 nanoclusters, the first reduction peaks due to C 60 moiety, and the potential dependencies of the photocurrents in the electrodes modified with the PH(10)C 60 nanoclusters in the presence of magnetic processing at three different positions, were different from those in the absence of magnetic processing. The effects of magnetic processing can probably be attributed to the magnetic force of a strong magnetic field.
