In the last three decades, a lot of scientific research has been carried out in the field of
Carbon nanomaterials all over the world due to their significant electronic, optical …

The unique ability of carbon atoms to participate in robust covalent bonds with other carbon
atoms in diverse hybridization states (sp, sp 2, sp 3) or with nonmetallic elements enables …

In 1985, the serendipitous discovery of fullerene triggered the research of carbon structures
into the world of symmetric nanomaterials. Consequently, Robert F. Curl, Harold W. Kroto …

Carbon is one of the basic elements for life on Earth. It exists in diverse allotropic forms while
being different in chemical and physical properties. The best well-known natural allotropes …

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 …

Lanthanide-based single-molecule magnets are leading materials for achieving
magnetization blocking at the level of one molecule. In this paper, we examine the physical …

In the last three decades, zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, and two-dimensional carbon
nanomaterials (ie, fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, respectively) have attracted …

In the last two decades, an increasing amount of studies have investigated the use of
components based on carbon-(nano) materials in the engineering of neural interfaces, to …

The discovery of fullerenes (also known as buckyballs) has generated tremendous
excitement and opened up a new field of carbon chemistry. As the first book available on this …
