Comparison between early stage oxygenation behavior of fullerenes and carbon nanotubes
We explore early stage oxygen addition to C 60 buckminsterfullerene, and compare its oxygenation behavior to that of both pristine and defective metallic carbon nanotubes, using ab initio theoretical modeling. For fullerene oxygen addition up to C 60O 4, in general oxygenation preferentially occurs...
