First-principles investigation of organic photovoltaic materials C$_{60}$, C$_{70}$, [C$_{60}$]PCBM, and bis-[C$_{60}$]PCBM using a many-body $G_0W_0$-Lanczos approach [PDF]
, 2015 We present a first-principles investigation of the excited-state properties of electron acceptors in organic photovoltaics including C$_{60}$, C$_{70}$, [6,6]-phenyl-C$_{61}$-butyric-acid-methyl-ester ([C$_{60}$]PCBM), and bis-[C$_{60}$]PCBM using many ...

Breaking of icosahedral symmetry: C60 to C70.
PLoS ONE, 2014 We describe the existence and structure of large fullerenes in terms of symmetry breaking of the C60 molecule. Specifically, we describe the existence of C70 in terms of breaking of the icosahedral symmetry of C60 by the insertion into its middle of an ...

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

From spin-polarized interfaces to giant magnetoresistance in organic spin valves
, 2014 We calculate the spin-polarized electronic transport through a molecular bilayer spin valve from first principles, and establish the link between the magnetoresistance and the spin-dependent inter- actions at the metal-molecule interfaces.

Infrared Study of Fullerene Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
, 2012 We present a study of 16 PNe where fullerenes have been detected in their Spitzer spectra. This large sample of objects offers an unique opportunity to test conditions of fullerene formation and survival under different metallicity environments as we are

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for
