Abstract
The talk presents results from ongoing projects in the field of carbon
nanostructures: (i) Mass selected ion beam soft-landing has been used
to generate exotic fullerene materials comprising covalent linked,
non-IPR cages. Apart from microscopic structure, we have studied
thermal and electronic properties as well as reactivity towards
(atomic) hydrogen. (ii) Confocal fluorescence microscopy was applied
to the near-infrared emission properties of individual semiconducting
single-walled carbon nanotubes subject to external perturbations such
as unaxial strain, torsion as well as interaction with surfaces,
sourrounding dielectrics and other nanotubes.
