In the formation of noncovalent complexes, the stacking arrangements of corannulene and fullerene are diverse, most of which are combinations of multiple corannulenes and fullerene. Here, a composition ratio of 2 : 1 was selected for the complex between corannulene and fullerene (C60 and C70) to inv...
