The topology of fullerenes [PDF]

open access: yesWIREs Computational Molecular Science, 2014
Fullerenes are carbon molecules that form polyhedral cages. Their bond structures are exactly the planar cubic graphs that have only pentagon and hexagon faces. Strikingly, a number of chemical properties of a fullerene can be derived from its graph structure.

Fullerene-Terminated Alkanethiolate SAMs on Gold Generated from Unsymmetrical Disulfides

open access: yes, 2016
We report the generation of new multicomponent self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) from the adsorption of unsymmetrical disulfides R(CH2)4SS(CH2)6NC60 (where R = CH3CH2− or CH3O− and C60 = Buckminsterfullerene) onto the surface of gold.

Carbon atoms catalyse fullerene growth

open access: yes, 2020
The fullerene road to C6o must proceed through isomers which do not obey the Isolated Pentagon Rule (IPR). Stone Wales (SW) transformations are required to redistribute the pentagons to obtain the almost exclusively observed IPR icosa-hedral C60. We find

Biogenic fullerenes?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Astrobiology, 2003
If the discoveries of C60 and C70 fullerenes in terrestrial hard rocks are real, then some of these may have formed in the solid state by dehydrogenation-driven ‘zip-up’ of C60Hn and C70Hm progenitors. At three sites of such fullerene discoveries the building blocks for these large molecules may have come from algal remains.

Carboxylic‐Acid Functionalized Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube‐Alkane‐Based Resistive Temperature Sensor for Cold Chain Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a reversible temperature sensor with high switching ratio, ∼103. The device is fabricated using PET‐ITO and carbon nanotube dispersions in alkane. Considering its application in cold chain logistics, a proof‐of‐concept with LED is showcased. Thus, a temperature drop below the threshold temperature (crystallization temperature of the

A Review on Fullerene Derivatives with Reduced Electron Affinity as Acceptor Materials for Organic Solar Cells

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Organic solar cells (OSCs) represent a promising emerging photovoltaic technology offering such benefits as light weight, mechanical flexibility, semitransparency, environmental friendliness and aesthetic design of solar panels.

Designed Lewis Acid–Base Passivation for High Performance Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silicon's high cost and long energy payback time remain major barriers to the global expansion of solar power. In contrast, metal–halide perovskites offer abundant, solution‐processable absorbers, and have achieved efficiencies of 25%–30%, positioning them as strong competitors to silicon.

Tuning the interactions between electron spins in fullerene-based triad systems

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2014
A series of six fullerene–linker–fullerene triads have been prepared by the stepwise addition of the fullerene cages to bridging moieties thus allowing the systematic variation of fullerene cage (C60 or C70) and linker (oxalate, acetate or terephthalate)
