Dennis Lichtenberger (University of Arizona, Tucson): "Prior to this work, the intriguing truncated icosahedral 'soccer ball' structure of the C60 molecule had been surmised from detection of ...
Growth patterns and NICS(1) contour planes (ppm) of (A) corannulene (6, C20H10) and (B) fullerene (7, C60). Superatomic Lewis structures and AdNDP localized orbitals of (C) corannulene (6 ...
You will join an international collaboration looking at the synthesis and properties of metal salts of endohedral fullerenes (denoted A@C60 where A is a molecule or atom enclosed within a C60 cage).
