Abstract
A novel salt-derivatized [60]fullerene pyrrolidine nitroxide has been synth esized which readily forms ball-like nanoparticles through self-assembly. T ransmission electron microscopy images indicate the formation of spherical particles with a diameter of 80-130 nm, and an LB film of the compound was obtained; the nanoparticles and the LB film were also examined by tapping m ode atomic force microscopy.
