Overview

This book gives an overview of one of the most challenging subject of the 90s: The physical and chemical properties of fullerenes and doped fullerenes — one year after the discovery of the high Tc superconductivity in alkali-metal doped C60.The major topics covered by the book are: synthesis and doping; higher fullerenes; optical and photoelectron spectroscopy; electric and magnetic properties; fullerenes in outer space and nonlinear optical properties superconductivity.Among the contributors to the book are leading world scientists in the field.
