One of the attractive properties of the hollow carbon clusters, known as fullerenes, is the
possibility to use them as robust containers for other species. Although an IUPAC …

In recent years, research in the field of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), such as fullerenes,
expanded graphite (EG), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, and graphene oxide (GO) …

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 …

This review focuses on the available experimental and theoretical investigations on noble
gas (Ng) endohedral fullerenes, addressing essential questions related to the mutual effects …

The geometric, electronic and nonlinear properties of exohedral and endohedral single and
multiple alkali metal (Li, Na and K) atom doped C 24 fullerene are studied. First, the most …

The encapsulation of metal clusters in endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs) takes place in
cages that in most cases are far from being the most stable isomer in the corresponding …

Fullerenes are carbon cages assembled from fused hexagons andpentagons that have
closed networks and conjugated π systems. The curve of the fullerene structure requires that …

Endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs) are fullerene cages enclosing various metallic
species. The functionalization of EMFs has remarkably blossomed in recent years, in …

We studied the kinetics of the Diels–Alder reaction of Li+-encapsulated [60] fullerene with 1,
3-cyclohexadiene and characterized the obtained product,[Li+@ C60 (C6H8)](PF6–) …

The review summarizes data on dipole polarizability of fullerenes and their derivatives,
covering the most widespread classes of fullerene-containing molecules (fullerenes …
