Journal ArticleDOI
High-yield fullerene encapsulation in single-wall carbon nanotubes
Hiromichi Kataura,Y. Maniwa,Takeshi Kodama,K. Kikuchi,Kaori Hirahara,Kazu Suenaga,Sumio Iijima,S. Suzuki,Y. Achiba,Wolfgang Krätschmer +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, single-wall carbon nanotubes encapsulating specified fullerenes (peapods) were synthesized using a sublimation method, and the Raman spectrum was measured to estimate macroscopic yield.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical properties of fullerene and non-fullerene peapods
Hiromichi Kataura,Yutaka Maniwa,Masatoshi Abe,Akihiko Fujiwara,Takeshi Kodama,K. Kikuchi,Hiroshi Imahori,Y. Misaki,Shinzo Suzuki,Y. Achiba +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) encapsulating fullerenes, so-called fullerene peapods, were synthesized in high yield by using diameter-selected nanotsubes as pods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and identification of fullerene family: C76, C78, C82, C84, C90 and C96
K. Kikuchi,N. Nakahara,Tomonari Wakabayashi,M. Honda,H. Matsumiya,T. Moriwaki,Shinzo Suzuki,H. Shiromaru,Kazuya Saito,Kotaro Yamauchi,Isao Ikemoto,Y. Achiba +11 more
TL;DR: A preparative high-performance liquid chromatography was examined for the isolation of higher fullerenes from CS 2 extracts of the carbon soot produced by arc heating of graphite in inert atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pseudo-gap at the Fermi level in K3C60 observed by photoemission and inverse photoemission.
T. Takahashi,Shoichiro Suzuki,T. Morikawa,Hiroshi Katayama-Yoshida,Shinji Hasegawa,Hiroo Inokuchi,Kanako Seki,K. Kikuchi,K. Ikemoto,Y. Achiba +9 more
TL;DR: The experimental results show that alkali doping does not lead to a rigid filling of the lowest unoccupied molecular-orbital band by the doped electrons but causes a transfer of electronic states from that band to an additional band produced in the band gap.
Journal ArticleDOI
The importance of low blood urea nitrogen levels in pregnant patients undergoing hemodialysis to optimize birth weight and gestational age.
Yukari Asamiya,Shigeru Otsubo,Yoshio Matsuda,Naoki Kimata,K. Kikuchi,Naoko Miwa,Keiko Uchida,Michio Mineshima,Minoru Mitani,Hiroaki Ohta,Kosaku Nitta,Takashi Akiba +11 more
TL;DR: Analysis of blood chemistry for 20 pregnancies from 12 weeks of gestation until delivery showed that the average hemoglobin level was significantly higher in the group that successfully delivered than in the unsuccessful group, and there were significant negative relationships between the blood urea nitrogen level and the birth weight or gestational age in the latter cohort.
