Handbook of nanophysics: clusters and fullerenes

This volume covers free clusters, including hydrogen, bimetallic, silicon, metal, and atomic clusters, as well as the cluster interactions. The expert contributors examine how carbon fullerenes are produced and how to characterize their stability. They discuss the structure, properties, and behavior of carbon fullerenes, including the smallest possible fullerene: C20. The book also looks at inorganic fullerenes, such as boron fullerenes, silicon fullerenes, nanocones, and onion-like inorganic fullerenes. Each peer-reviewed chapter containsa broad-based introduction and enhances the state-of-the-art scientific content through fundamental equations and illustrations, some in color.
