KrAtschmer and Huffman's revolutionary discovery of a new solid
phase of carbon, solid C60, in 1990 opened the way to an entire new
class of materials with physical properties so diverse that their
richness has not yet been fully exploited. Moreover, as a
by-product of fullerene research, carbon nanotubes were later
identified, from which novel nanostructures originated that are
currently fascinating materials scientists worldwide. Rivers of
words have been written on both fullerenes and nanotubes, in the
form of journal articles, conference proceedings and books. The
present book offers, in a concise and self-contained manner, the
basics of the science of these materials as well as detailed
information on those aspects that have so far been better explored.
Structural, electronic and dynamical properties are described as
obtained from various measurements and state-of-the-art
calculations. Their interrelation emerges as well as their possible
dependence on, for example, preparation conditions or methods of
investigation. By presenting and comparing data from different
sources, experiment and theory, this book helps the reader to
rapidly master the basic knowledge, to grasp important issues and
critically discuss them. Ultimately, it aims to inspire him or her
to find novel ways to approach still open questions. As such, this
book is addressed to new researchers in the field as well as
experts.
