A Constructive Enumeration of Fullerenes
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a fast and complete method to enumerate fullerene structures is given. It is based on a top-down approach, and it is fast enough to generate, for example, all 1812 isomers of C60 in less than 20 seconds on an SGI-workstation. The method described can easily be generalised for 3-regular spherical maps with no face having more than 6 edges in its boundary. 3 Symbols: P : A calligraphic P

Pentagonal chains and annuli as models for designing nanostructures from cages
Carbon is the most versatile of chemical elements in combining with itself or other elements to form chains, rings, sheets, cages, and periodic 3D structures. One of the perspective trends for creating new molecules of nanotechnological interest deals with constructs which may be formed by chemically linking of cage molecules. The growing interest to fullerene polyhedra and other molecules with...

Up to now, various empty carbon fullerenes with different magic number "n", such as C10, Cow Cm, Cso,Cis** Cm and so on. have been obtained. The calix[n]arenes are a class of chalice-like rnacrocyclicmolecules that have attracted widespread attention as complex molecules with liquid crystal behaviors.These classes of compounds are cyclic ohgomers synthessid by condensation of a para-alkylated p...
متن کاملApplication of Parametric L-Systems to Generate the Figures of Two Series of Spherical Fullerenes
In this work, two parametric L-Systems have been introduced to generate the figures of two series of nanostructures. These series consist of different spherical fullerenes with various number of carbon atoms. By specifying a parameter in each series a spherical fullerene can be determined. The members of the first series are C60 , C240 , C540 , C940 ,… which can be produced by applying paramete...
متن کاملElectronic Properties of Hydrogen Adsorption on the Silicon- Substituted C20 Fullerenes: A Density Functional Theory Calculations
The B3LYP/6-31++G** density functional calculations were used to obtain minimum geometries and interaction energies between the molecular hydrogen and nanostructures of fullerenes, C20 (cage), C20 (bowl), C19Si (bowl, penta), C19Si (bowl, hexa). The H2 molecule is set as adsorbed in the distance of 3Å at vertical position from surface above the pentagonal and hexagonal sites of nanostructures. ...
متن کاملSpace fullerenes: a computer search for new Frank-Kasper structures.
A Frank-Kasper structure is a 3-periodic tiling of the Euclidean space E3 by tetrahedra such that the vertex figure of any vertex belongs to four specified patterns with, respectively, 20, 24, 26 and 28 faces. Frank-Kasper structures occur in the crystallography of metallic alloys and clathrates. A new computer enumeration method has been devised for obtaining Frank-Kasper structures of up to 2...
