Abstract

We review results of our local-density-functional-based cluster calculations and molecular dynamics simulations of fullerenes and related structures. These include predictions of cohesive energies, electronic structures, and photoelectron spectra for a number of pure and chemically substituted fullerenes, studies of the resilience of C60 under severe compression and during surface collisions, simulations of the trapping of Hein the interior of C60, predictions of the strain energy, electronic and elastic properties of graphitic tubules, and simulations of the folding and curling of graphitic ribbons.
