Moving of fullerene between potential wells in the external icosahedral shell.

The results of the theoretical investigation of the behavior of fullerenes C20 and C60 inside the icosahedral external shell on example of carbon nanoclusters, C20@С240 and C60@С540, are presented in this article. The multiwell potential of interaction between fullerenes in investigated nanoclusters is calculated to reveal the regularities of moving for internal fullerene in the field of holding potential of the external shell. The possible variants of fullerenes C20 and C60 moving between the potential wells are predicted on base of topology data of the fullerenes relative positioning in nanoparticle and analysis of relief of the energy surface of interaction between fullerenes.
