摘要
We have studied the transferability of the tight-binding total energy parametrization (TBTE) method for carbon, which has been presented by the Naval Research Laboratory group through electronic structural calculations of solid C-60. The TBTE method fails in describing the weak van der Waals interactions among C60 clusters. It has, however, excellent transferability for evaluating electronic properties; thus it is expected to be a new tool for studying diverse carbon systems.
