Preferred location of the Dy ion in the minor isomer of Dy@C-82 determined by Dy L-III-edge EXAFS
Location of the Dy ion in the minor isomer of Dy@C-82 was determined by Dy L-III-edge EXAFS. The Dy ion is found to lie near the fused bond between the two hexagon rings. This finding is consistent with that predicted by a quantum-chemical calculation [Chem. Phys. Lett. 282 (1998) 325]. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
