Fullerenes: Nanochemistry, Nanomagnetism, Nanomedicine, Nanophotonics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138199057)

Fullerenes presents a unified introduction to the multidisciplinary world of fullerene nanoscience based on a single paradigm of concepts, terminology, and ideas. It uses a computational platform to embrace two distinguishing fullerene features: odd electrons and exclusive donor-acceptor abilities. The author showcases fullerene nanoscience from a computational viewpoint, intertwining theory and experiment to elucidate key concepts in fullerene science and future avenues of exploration. She uses fullerene membership in sp² nanocarbon nanoscience to demonstrate the intimate similarity in the behavior of fullerene, carbon nanotubes, and graphene.
