“…The possibility of introducing fullerenes in materials processed at high temperature, such as optical glasses, was demonstrated by Lin and co-workers. − Raw materials of phosphate and fluorophosphates glasses have been added to a mixture of C 60 /C 70 fullerenes, fired 1 h in a sealed device at 1200 K and slowly cooled. The sealed system avoided degradation of fullerenes, and up to 0.1 wt % of C 60 /C 70 can be introduced in the glass.…”

The development of new materials based on the novel and unique properties exhibited by the family of fullerenes is attracting growing interest from materials scientists. As the progress of the studies discloses new properties and basic knowledge is better established, three main fields are emerging in the preparation of materials from fullerenes: fullerene thin films, organic polymeric materials that contain fullerene molecules, and the incorporation of fullerenes and their derivatives in inorganic host matrixes to fabricate organic-inorganic nanocomposites. This last family of materials, in particular, opens several interesting perspectives for different applications, especially in nonlinear optics and photoelectrochemistry. Fullerene organic-inorganic nanocomposites have been prepared using porous media as a host matrix and different groups of materials synthesized via sol-gel, such as aerogels, porous inorganic oxides, and hybrid and mesoporous materials. Nanocomposite materials developed from fullerenes in inorganic host media are the objects of the present review.

“…From the High-resolution transmission electron Intensity/(a.u.) 10 20 [ 23] In addition, the HRTEM results also reveal the formation of the close interface contact between g-C 3 N 4 and TiO 2 nanorods, which is of benefit for the rapid charge separation in the electron-transfer process and photocatalytic enhancement. [24] As shown in Figure 2b, the C, N, O, and Ti elements are observed simultaneously from the element mapping of the g-C 3 N 4 / TiO 2 composite.…”

Direct Z‐scheme g‐C3N4/TiO2 nanorod composites were prepared for enhancing photocatalytic activity for pollutant removal. The characterization revealed that the g‐C3N4/TiO2 nanorod composite formed a close interface contact between g‐C3N4 and TiO2 nanorods, which was of benefit for the charge transfer and resulted in its high photocatalytic activity. The g‐C3N4/TiO2 nanorod composites exhibited higher photocatalytic activity for degradation of Rhodamine B (RHB) than bare g‐C3N4 and TiO2 nanorods. The high photocatalytic activity of g‐C3N4/TiO2 nanorod composites is attributed to the formation of the direct Z‐scheme system, in which the electrons from the conduction band (CB) of TiO2 combine with the holes from the valence band (VB) of C3N4 while the electrons from the CB of C3N4 and holes from the VB of TiO2 with stronger redox ability are used to reduce and oxidize pollutants. Based on the radical‐trapping experiments, the main reactive species for RHB degradation are O2− and ·OH, which are produced by photoinduced electrons and holes with high redox ability. This work provides insights into the photocatalytic mechanism of composite materials for the photocatalytic removal of organic pollutants.

“…C 60 has also been incorporated into phosphate and fluorophosphate optical glasses obtained by the melting procedure. [60][61][62] The chemical bonds and tight confinement strongly deformed the fullerene molecules and distorted the molecular symmetry of fullerene; these effects cause remarkable changes to the fluorescence spectrum. In particular a broad PL should be caused by amorphous islands of microstructures related to fullerene complexes (fullerene molecules bonded with [PO 4 ] 2 tetrahedra).…”

Fullerenes containing nanocomposite materials for optical applications have attracted the attention of many different research groups during the last few years. Great effort has been devoted to finding appropriate solid state materials allowing the inclusion of fullerenes: among them, polymeric, sol-gel and porous matrices have been largely investigated. Particular emphasis has been placed on the synthesis of these nanostructured materials incorporating fullerenes to reach the best control of fullerene interactions in different environments and higher fullerene dispersions in solid environments.
