The growth of fullerene nanocrystals, composed of only C-60, only C-70, or a mixture of both fullerenes, has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The nanocrystals, formed on a NaCl ultrathin layer partially covering a Au(111) surface, ...
Focused Electron Beam Induced Processing (FEBIP) is a technique used for etching and deposition of micro- and nano-structures using a focused electron beam. FEBIP is commonly carried out in a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) with a Gas Injection System ( ...
We studied the temperature stability of the endohedral fullerene molecule N@C-60 inside single-wall carbon nanotubes using electron-spin-resonance spectroscopy. We found that the nitrogen escapes at higher temperatures in the encapsulated material as compa ...
We report on the temperature stability of N@C-60 peapods using electron spin resonance. The atomic nitrogen escapes at higher temperatures in the peapod than in the crystalline form. We also report on the synthesis of novel magnetic fullerene peapod, a ful ...
Coordination assemblies formed by metal(II) dithiocarbamates M-II(R(2)dtc)2 (M = Zn, Cd, Hg, Mn, and Fe; R = Me, Et, iPr, nPr, and nBu) and nitrogen-containing ligands (L = DABCO, DMP, and HMTA) are shown to be sterically well consistent with the spherical ...
