Spin-polarized electrical transport in transition metal encapsulated C20 fullerenes: A theoretical account

This work delves into the conductance property of transition metal (Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) encapsulated C20 endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs), sandwiched between non-magnetic gold electrodes. DFT optimization of the designed systems casts the encapsulated metal at the center of the C20 cage ir...
