Popis: A review of the structure and properties of fullerenes is presented. Emphasis is given to their behavior as molecular solids. The structure and property modifications produced by alkali-metal doping are summarized, including modification to the electronic structure, lattice modes, transport, and optical properties. Particular emphasis is given to the alkali-metal-doped fullerenes because of their importance as superconductors. A review of the structure and properties of fullerene-based graphene tubules is also given, including a model for their one-dimensional electronic band structure. Potential applications for fullerene-based materials are suggested.
