Since their discovery, fullerenes in general and buckminsterfullerene C60 in particular, became a subject of great interest for studies. Being compatible with the sol–gel process, one of the promising approaches is to incorporate the fullerene molecules in sol–gel oxide matrices. Great part of studi...
