Description

The geometrical structures and energetics of positively doubly charged fullerene dimer (C60)22+ conformers were studied using semiempirical PM3 and MNDO, Hartree-Fock (HF), and Hybrid B3LYP density functional methods. The shape of the HOMO-LUMO for the three conformers was also analyzed. The gauche conformer was the most stable of the three conformers. The anti conformer was more stable than the syn conformer
