The route by which gas-phase molecules in hydrocarbon flames form condensed-phase
carbonaceous nanoparticles (incipient soot) is reviewed. These products of incomplete …

Broad Family of Carbon Nanoallotropes: Classification, Chemistry, and Applications of
Fullerenes, Carbon Dots, Nanotubes, Graphene, Nanodiamonds, and Combined …

Chemical kinetic modeling in heterogeneous catalysis is advancing in its ability to provide
qualitatively or even quantitatively accurate prediction of real-world behavior because of …

In this article, we report the development of a ReaxFF reactive potential that can accurately
describe the chemistry and dynamics of carbon condensed phases. Density functional …

Tremendous progress has been achieved during the past 20 years on not only improving
the yields of carbon nanotubes and move progressively towards their mass production, but …

Buckminsterfullerene (C60) was recently confirmed as the largest molecule identified in
space. However, it remains unclear how and where this molecule is formed. It is generally …

Fullerenes are carbon molecules that form polyhedral cages. Their bond structures are
exactly the planar cubic graphs that have only pentagon and hexagon faces. Strikingly, a …

Although fullerenes can be efficiently generated from graphite in high yield, the route to the
formation of these symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing carbon cages from a flat graphene …

In this tutorial review taking X-ray crystallographically characterized compounds as a starting
point a walk is taken through the electronic and structural properties of endohedral …

It is an established paradigm in the emerging fields of nanoscience, nanotechnology and
molecular engineering that a very important domain of fundamental research is associated …
