MAGIC NUMBERS AND STABLE STRUCTURES FOR FULLERENES, FULLERIDES AND FULLERENIUM IONS

MACROSCOPIC amounts of the two fullerenes C60 and C70 have been available for a year1, and have already had an enormous impact on research in chemistry and physics. Experimentalists are now turning their attention to the higher fullerenes2,3. Qualitative molecular-orbital theory predicts4-6 stabilit...
