Rotational Coherence of Encapsulated Ortho and Para Water in Fullerene-C60
Sergey S. Zhukov, Vasileios Balos, Gabriela Hoffman +13
Encapsulation of a single water molecule in fullerene-C60 via chemical surgery provides a unique opportunity to study the distinct rotational dynamics of the water spin isomers at…

Spin-isomer conversion of water at room temperature, and quantum-rotor-induced nuclear polarization, in the water-endofullerene HO@C
Benno Meier, Karel Kouřil, Christian Bengs +6
Water exists in two forms, para and ortho, that have nuclear spin states with different symmetries. Here we report the conversion of fullerene-encapsulated para-water to ortho-wate…
