TL;DR: The Jahn-Teller metal is identified as a fluctuating microscopically heterogeneous coexistence of both localized and itinerant electrons that connects the insulating and superconducting states of fullerides.

TL;DR: It is shown that, near the Mott insulating phase, the upper critical field Hc2 of the fulleride superconductors reaches values as high as ∼90 T—the highest among cubic crystals, suggesting that the cooperative interplay between molecular electronic structure and strong electron correlations plays a key role in realizing robust superconductivity with high-Tc and high-Hc2.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the low-temperature magnetic state of face-centered-cubic (fcc) antiferromagnet, a Mott insulator and the first molecular analog of a geometrically frustrated Heisenberg fcc magnet with S = 1/2$ spins.

TL;DR: The ternary fulleride Rb0.25Cs2.75C60 as discussed by the authors is the most expanded member of the family of face-centered cubic (fcc) structured superconducting fullerides ever accessed with superconductivity.

TL;DR: A solution chemistry synthetic route yields Cs(3)C(60) with a face-centred cubic structure using well-established Schlenk techniques and THF as a solvent with controlled addition of an organo-metallic salt reducing agent.
