Carbon is the most prominent element of state-of-the-art nanoscience. Kroto, Curl, and
Smalley were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1996 for discovery of fullerenes. 1− 4 …

To harness “smaller is more ductile” behavior emergent at nanoscale and to proliferate it
onto materials with macroscale dimensions, we produced hollow-tube Cu60Zr40 metallic …

Efficient manipulation of nanoparticles and single molecules has always been of great
interest and potential in nanotechnology. However, many challenges still remain in …

High-pressure Diels–Alder cycloaddition reaction of fullerenes is an important synthetic
method for the thermally stable cycloadducts. The effects of high pressure on the potential …

Vibronic coupling density is derived from a general point of view as a one-electron property
density. Related concepts as well as their applications are presented. Linear and nonlinear …

Dibenzophenazine was recently synthesized mechanochemically at a high yield. On the
basis of experimental kinetics and theoretical vibronic coupling density analysis, this efficient …

How the electronic properties and chemical reactivity of empty fullerenes can be changed
upon endohedral metal-doping? How the dynamic behavior and position of encapsulated …

The origin of aggregation-induced enhanced emission (AIEE) is investigated considering
cyano-substituted 1, 2-bis (pyridylphenyl) ethene (CNPPE) as an example. On the basis of …

The chemical reactivity in nucleophilic cycloaddition to C70 is investigated on the basis of
vibronic (electron-vibration) coupling density and vibronic coupling constants. Because the e …

We theoretically investigate multiple cycloadditions of butadienes to fullerene C 60 with the
concept of vibronic coupling density (VCD) as a reactivity index. Recently, we have clarified …
