In this review, the properties of buckminsterfullerene and its organic and polymeric reactions were focused. In addition, polymer blending with $C_{60}$ will be briefly introduced. As soon as $C_{60}$ was discovered, chemists put their efforts to explore its reactivity with other compounds. The knowledge of the organic reactions with $C_{60}$ was extended to construct different types of fullerene polymers such as side chain fullerene polymers, main chain fullerene polymers, star shaped fullerene polymers, and dendritic fullerene polymers.

Aluminum-based composites containing $C_{60}$-fullerenes are produced by hot rolling of ball-milled powder. The grain size of aluminum is effectively reduced to ~100 nm during ball-milling processes, leading to grain refinement strengthening of the composite. Furthermore, $C_{60}$-fullerenes are gradually dispersed during ball-milling processes and hence the strength of the composite increases with the volume of $C_{60}$-fullerenes. The composite containing 10 vol% $C_{60}$-fullerenes with a grain size of ~ 100 nm exhibits ~1 GPa of compressive strength.

최근 유기태양전지 분야의 큰 진보는 비풀러렌 전자수용체 소재의 등장에 의해 달성되었다. 비풀러렌 기반 유기광활성층은 기존 풀러렌 기반 소자의 내재적 한계로 지적되던 높은 에너지 손실을 극복하고 동시에 소재의 흡광대역 확장을 통한 광전류밀도 증가로 유기태양전지 성능을 지속적으로 개선하고 있다. 더불어 비풀러렌 소재는 화학 구조의 개질 용이성으로 밴드갭 자유 제어가 가능하므로, 광활성층의 흡광 대역을 정밀하게 제어하면 반투명 태양전지, 실내 저조도 태양전지, 파장선택적 광검출기, 소재융합형 소자 등 다양한 광전자소자 응용이 가능하여 주목받고 있다. 본 기고문에서는 유기태양전지 광활성층에 활용되는 비풀러렌 소재의 최신 연구 동향과 전망을 다루고자 한다.

The density functional theory (DFT) calculations on $(H_2O)_n@C_{60}$, (n=1-10) complexes have been performed to elucidate hydrogen interaction between fullerene and water clusters. The optimized geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, and binding energies are predicted at various levels of theory. The harmonic vibrational frequencies for the molecules considered in this study show all real numbers implying true minima. We also compare the H-bond interaction between $(H_2O)_n$ and $(H_2O)_n@C_{60}$, (n=1-10) clusters.

Fullerene oxides were synthesized by fullerene ($C_{70}$) and several amine N-oxides such as 3-picoline N-oxide, pyridine N-oxide hydrate, quinoline N-oxide, and isoquinoline N-oxide under ultrasonic condition at $25{\sim}43^{\circ}C$. The reactivity of fullerene ($C_{70}$) with various amine N-oxides undo, ultrasonic irradiation showed the same in all of the proceeding experiments; 3-picoline N-oxide : pyridine N-oxide hydrate : quinoline N-oxide : isoquinoline N-oxide. The MALDI-TOF MS, UV-vis spectrophotometer and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of fullerene oxidation are [$C_{70}(O)n$] (n=1).

We investigated the position controlling C60 fullerene encapsulated into a graphene-nanoribbon trench via classical molecular dynamics simulations. The graphene-nanoribbon trench can provide nanoscale empty spaces, and a C60 encapsulated therein can be considered as media for a nanoelectromechanical shuttle device. The classical molecular dynamics simulations presented here provide information on the potential application of a graphene-nanoribbon trench in a C60 shuttle device. Driving forces applied to C60 resulted in its motion toward the edges of the graphene-nanoribbon trench, the suction forces induced at both edges were balanced with the driving forces, and finally, the C60 fullerene gradually settled on the edges of the graphene-nanoribbon trench after several oscillations. The results of the present simulation suggest the importance of graphene-nanoribbon trenches encapsulating fullerenes in a wide range of applications in the field of nanotechnology.

Synthesis of fullerene oxides by fullerenes [$C_{60},\;C_{70}$] and several oxidants such as benzoylperoxide, trichloroisocyanuric acid, methyltrioxorhenium(VII), iodosobenzene, phosphorous pentoxide take place under ultrasonic condition at room temperature. The MALDI-TOF MS,UV-visible spectra and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of fullerenes oxidation are [$C_{60}(O)_n$], ($n=1{\sim}3$ or n=1) and [$C_{70}(O)_n$], ($n=1{\sim}2$ or n=1). As compared with the reactivity of epoxidation of fullerenes [$C_{60},\;C_{70}$], the reaction rate of $C_{70}$ was lower than that of $C_{60}$ under same reaction condition.

Sonochemical reaction of fullerene oxides, $[C_{70}(O)_n](n\geq1)$ with several aromatic amines such as 4-nitroaniline, 3-nitroaniline, and 4-isopropylaniline, in the presence of $FeCl_3$ were investigated under ultrasonic irradiation. This method is applicable to a wide variety of aromatic amines especially ring deactivated, to afford the corresponding cleavage products under mild conditions. The aminated fullerenes were confirmed by MALDI-TOF-MS and UV-vis spectra.

Synthesis or fullerene oxides[$C_{60}(O)_n$] ($n=1{\sim}4$ or n=1) by fullerene[$C_{60}$] and several oxidants such as 3-chloroperoxy benzoic acid, benzoyl peroxide, trichloroisocyanuric acid, and chromium(VI) oxide took place under microwave irradiation. The reactivity in solid state of fullerene[$C_{60}$] with various oxidants under same microwave rendition increased in order or 3- chloroperoxy benzoic acid > benzoyl peroxide > trichloroisocyanuric acid $\simeq$chromium(VI) oxide. The MALDI-TOF-MS, UV-visible spectra and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of fullerene oxidation were [$C_{60}(O)_n$] ($n=1{\sim}4$ or n=1).
