Bottom-up formation of endohedral mono-metallofullerenes is directed by charge transfer

An understanding of the formation mechanism of endohedral metallofullerenes may pave the way towards targeted synthesis of these nanomaterials. Here, the authors investigate their bottom-up synthesis and determine that charge transfer plays a key role in their formation.

Closed network growth of fullerenes

The formation mechanisms of fullerenes remain unclear. This study shows that fullerenes self-assemble through a closed network growth mechanism in which atomic carbon and C₂are incorporated into the growing closed cages.
