TLDR
In this paper, the formation of C60 dimers with a nitrogen atom in one of the C60 cages is studied, where the dimers are produced by ball milling of a mixture of N@C60 with C60 and a suitable additive.About:

Solvent-Free Carbon-Carbon Bond Formations in Ball Mills
TL;DR: Ball milling has been applied in numerous solvent-free carbon-carbon bond formations as mentioned in this paper, and in many cases, these transformations proved superior to the analogous reactions performed in solution, and the reaction scope involves purely organic addition and coupling reactions, transformations involving metals (in stoichiometric and catalytic amounts) as well as asymmetric organocatalyses.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report their experimental and theoretical efforts to create a technology based on endohedral fullerenes or "buckyballs" and describe their successes with respect to these criteria, along with the obstacles and the questions that remain to be addressed.

Architectures for a Spin Quantum Computer Based on Endohedral Fullerenes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a discussion of recent concepts for the construction of a spin quantum computer using endohedral fullerenes, and discuss the probable properties of such registers and different strategies to use them in a quantum computer design, including gating and readout methods.

Ab initio study of optimal control of ammonia molecular vibrational wavepackets: Towards molecular quantum computing
TL;DR: In this article, an optimal control theory is applied to a molecular vibrational system in light of its possible application to quantum computing (QC), and the results show that average population transfers at each gate are above 93% high fidelity.

Polymerized fullerite structures.
TL;DR: It is shown that heating under high pressure drives new distorted crystalline phases that are metastable at room temperature and pressure, and the view that these new carbon phases can be understood as the long range order polymerization of C 60 through cycloaddition reactions that are at the origin of the shorter intermolecular distances.

Synthesis and X-ray structure of dumb-bell-shaped C 120
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the C4 ring connecting the cages is square rather than rectangular and that the latter is predicted theoretically, whereas the former was predicted theoretically by the authors of this paper.

Noble Gas Atoms Inside Fullerenes
TL;DR: In this paper, a window mechanism in which one or more of the carbon-carbon bonds of the cage is broken has been proposed to explain the process, and the amount of gas inside the fullerenes can be measured by heating to 1000°C.

Observation of Atomlike Nitrogen in Nitrogen-Implanted Solid C60.
TL;DR: The hyperfine splitting and the isotope effect unambiguously show that the paramagnetic center contains one nitrogen nucleus, and the complex responsible for this center is soluble in toluene and C and is stable.

TL;DR: In this paper, the [2 + 2] dimer of fullerene C60 was achieved by the solid-state mechanochemical reaction of C60 with KCN by the use of a high-speed vibration milling (HSVM) technique.
