Two-dimensional complexes of C_20 fullerenes connected to each other by covalent bonds have been studied. Several isomers with different types of intercluster bonds have been revealed. The lifetimes of the (C_20)_MxM systems with M = 2 and 3 have been directly calculated at T = 1800 - 3300 K making use of molecular dynamics. It has been shown that these complexes lose their periodic cluster structure due to either coalescence of two fullerenes C_20 or decay of C_20 fullerenes. The activation energies of these processes exceed 2 eV.
