Carbon onions within silica nanoshells
Carbon onions have been known since Iijima first observed them in 1980 [1]. In 1992 Ugarte et al. made carbon onions by irradiating carbon soot by an intense electron beam in a transmission electron microscope [2]. There are reports in the literature on the production of carbon structures in water medium by generating an electric arc to create high temperatures [3,4]. It was found that several ...
متن کاملPlasmon Excitations in Carbon Onions: ~odelvs.~easurements
Non-relativistic local dielectric response theory has proven successful in the interpretation of Electron Energy Loss data of nanometer-size isotropic particles of different geometries. In previous work, we have adapted this model to take into account anisotropy as encountered in the case of carbon onions. We have shown that this anisotropy needs to be taken into account since important deviati...
متن کاملSite specific atomic polarizabilities in endohedral fullerenes and carbon onions.
We investigate the polarizability of trimetallic nitride endohedral fullerenes by partitioning the total polarizability into site specific components. This analysis indicates that the polarizability of the endohedral fullerene is essentially due to the outer fullerene cage and has insignificant contribution from the encapsulated unit. Thus, the outer fullerene cages effectively shield the encap...
متن کاملEdge-mediated dislocation processes in carbon nano-onions?
We report in situ electron microscopy observations of dislocation dissociation and annihilation processes in individual nanometer-sized carbon onions. Essential for these processes is the counterintuitive motion of the 1 2 < 0001 > edge from the outer surface to the inner region, which cross-links or unlinks a large number of shells. The correlation with atomistic simulations and analysis of th...
متن کاملCarbon nano-onions (multi-layer fullerenes): chemistry and applications
This review focuses on the development of multi-layer fullerenes, known as carbon nano-onions (CNOs). First, it briefly summarizes the most important synthetic pathways for their preparation and their properties and it gives the reader an update over new developments in the recent years. This is followed by a discussion of the published synthetic procedures for CNO functionalization, which are ...
