1.4.2 Organic Nanomaterials
Table 1.1 lists nanosize materials in this book. Since the discovery of carbon
nanotube and fullerene [19–21], many researchers have focused on carbon nanomaterials, due to many scientific interests such as nanosize structure itself, superconductivity, application to semiconductor device, storage material, etc. In Chaps.
5 and 7, functional analysis for several carbon nanomaterials is introduced. Note
that carbon nanomaterial with nanospace is here categorised as nanospace material.
Oligomer can be defined as nanomaterial consisting of relatively small amounts of
monomers. In Chap. 6, structure and electronic state of oligomers are introduced.
1.4.3 Cluster
It is roughly regarded that cluster (1 ~ 10 nm) is the aggregation of different
atoms, ligands and molecules. For example, Mn 12 -core cluster is known as cluster
magnet [22, 23], which exhibits unique magnetic property different from bulk
magnet. Fe 4 -core cluster [24] exhibits quantum spin crossover [25, 26]. Iron spin
