What is Special about Endofullerenes?

It is demonstrated that metallo-endofullerenes can exhibit close-lying electronic levels with different spin multiplicity, thus serving as sensitive spin probes for charge transfer in carbon nanotubes. In contrast, N@C 60 is an inert spin label with exceptional sensitivity against local electric fie...

Description
Summary:It is demonstrated that metallo-endofullerenes can exhibit close-lying electronic levels with different spin multiplicity, thus serving as sensitive spin probes for charge transfer in carbon nanotubes. In contrast, N@C 60 is an inert spin label with exceptional sensitivity against local electric fields, which can probably be used to explore SWNT properties.
