Photoisomerization of a fullerene dimer

A photo-switchable fullerene dimer and its analogous nitrogen endohedral species have been synthesized and characterized. Irradiation by ultraviolet and visible light has been used to switch between the trans and cis isomers of both the C60- and N@C60- based dimers. Environmental perturbations exper...
