Abstract

In this paper, we apply the full new method of quantum theory to study the double-slit diffraction of C60{C_{60}} molecules. We calculate the double-slit wave functions of C60{C_{60}} molecules by Schr\"{o}dinger equation, and calculate the diffraction wave function behind the slits with the Feynman path integral quantum theory, and then give the relation between the diffraction intensity of double-slit and diffraction pattern position. We compare the calculation results with two different double-slit diffraction experiments. When the decoherence effects are considered, the calculation results are in good agreement with the two experimental data.
