摘要
Computational torsional deformation experiments were performed under the framework of density functional theory with C-60 based on the anisotropy in the molecule inducing different topological defects. The effects of torsional deformation on spheroid cage and strain energy were investigated. Different isomers possessing different strain energies during the deformation experiments were noticed. Stable as well as reactive isomers of C-60 which could withstand high pressures were identified including those induced with Stone-Wales defect.
