Preparation of Fullerene−Polyyne Nanospheres via Thermally Induced Solid-State Polymerization

A 1,3,5,7-octatetrayne-linked bis(fullerene) compound has been synthesized. Through a thermally induced solid-state polymerization reaction on a surface, the solid thin film of this compound was transformed into a highly uniform and well organized polymer nanosphere array. This finding suggests a si...

Description
Summary:A 1,3,5,7-octatetrayne-linked bis(fullerene) compound has been synthesized. Through a thermally induced solid-state polymerization reaction on a surface, the solid thin film of this compound was transformed into a highly uniform and well organized polymer nanosphere array. This finding suggests a simple and useful method for the preparation of carbon-rich, fullerene-containing nanoparticles.
