Packing C 60 in Boron Nitride Nanotubes

Mickelson, W., Aloni, S., Han, Wei-Qiang, Cumings, John, Zettl, A.·2003·Science

Abstract

We have created insulated C 60 nanowire by packing C 60 molecules into the interior of insulating boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs).For small-diameter BNNTs, the wire consists of a linear chain of C 60 molecules.With increasing BNNT inner diameter, unusual C 60 stacking configurations are obtained (including helical, hollow core, and incommensurate) that are unknown for bulk or thin-film forms of C 60 .C 60 in BNNTs thus presents a model system for studying the properties of dimensionally constrained “silo” crystal structures. For the linear-chain case, we have fused the C 60 molecules to form a single-walled carbon nanotube inside the insulating BNNT.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
