Abstract

The electronic structure of fullerenes and buckonions have been investigated using quantum-mechanical methods: the Gutzwiller and shell-model techniques. In the first part, fullerenes have been modeled with the Hubbard Hamiltonian and the electronic correlation has been examined within the Gutzwiller framework. It has been derived various characteristic energies of fullerenes (C60andC240) in the free state (first and second ionization energies, electron affinity, and singlet and triplet energies). The second part deals with buckonions. Fullerenes and buckonions have been modeled with the spherical shell-model approach. The calculation has led to the electronic structure of fullerenes and of buckonions. So if we compare the energy levels of the buckonions with those of the fullerenes which build the buckonions, only the buckonions energy levels coming from the outer shell are changed by the coupling between shells.
