Description:
Author(s): Jonathan Barnoud, Giulia Rossi, and Luca Monticelli Fullerene is scarcely soluble in most solvents, including alkanes. Yet, it has been shown that C60 dissolves in lipid bilayers, whose interior is chemically identical to alkanes. Here, we use molecular simulations to explain why lipid bilayers are better than alkanes at dissolving fullerene clusters... [Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 068102] Published Wed Feb 12, 2014
