UGARTE Onion-like graphitic particles

The final section of the volume contains three complementary review articles on carbon nanoparticles. The first by Y. Saito reviews the state of knowledge about carbon cages encapsulating metal and carbide phases. The structure of onion-like graphite particles, the spherical analog of the cylindrical carbon nanotubes, is reviewed by D. Ugarte, the dominant researcher in this area. The volume concludes with a review of metal-coated fullerenes by T. P. Martin and co-workers, who pioneered studies on this topic.
