Asunto: Direct transformation of graphene to fullerene
Direct transformation of graphene to fullerene Nature Chemistry 2, 450 (2010). doi:10.1038/nchem.644 Authors: Andrey Chuvilin, Ute Kaiser, Elena Bichoutskaia, Nicholas A. Besley & Andrei N. Khlobystov Although fullerenes have been synthesized from graphite for a long time, the exact mechanism is relatively unknown. Now, in situ microscopy and quantum chemical modelling have directly followed the formation of fullerenes from a single graphitic sheet — graphene. |
