One of the attractive properties of the hollow carbon clusters, known as fullerenes, is the
possibility to use them as robust containers for other species. Although an IUPAC …

The unidirectional growth of materials to form nanowires or nanotubes has attracted
enormous interest in recent years. Within the different classes of tubes made of organic or …

Endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs), a new class of hybrid molecules formed by
encapsulation of metallic species inside fullerene cages, exhibit unique properties that differ …

An emerging class of heterostructures with unprecedented (photo) electrocatalytic behavior,
involving the combination of fullerenes and low‐dimensional (LD) nanohybrids, is currently …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) revealing metallic or semiconductive properties depending on
the folding modes of the nanotube walls represent a novel class of nanowires. Different …

The successive discoveries of fullerenes1 and carbon nanotubes2 (CNTs) around 1990
triggered a hot wave of scientific research to explore the properties and applications of these …

Pseudo-topotactic conversion of carbon nanotubes into one-dimensional carbon nanowires
is a challenging but feasible path to obtain desired diameters and morphologies. Here, a …

In this critical review we survey non-covalent interactions of carbon nanotubes with
molecular species from a chemical perspective, particularly emphasising the relationship …

First Self-Contained Source Entirely Dedicated to Nanocarbons Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)
