We demonstrate remarkably enhanced yield of C60 fullerenes in an aerosol discharge chamber due to the additional presence of a strong spatial temperature gradient. The role of the temperature gradients in the increased yield of C60 and fullerene-like structures is discussed. The reaction is not fully reversible and carbon soot matter is formed as a secondary product in the form of carbon aerosol particles. The increasing concentration of C60 was easily recognized from the characteristic UV-spectra. The result of this paper will be useful for improvement of fullerene synthesis technology and for application to constructing new types of aerosol-plasma reactors.
