Abstract
The formation energy and the Stone—Wales defect structure in fullerene C20 doped with one of functional groups H, Cl, F, or OH are calculated within the density functional theory. It is shown that the functional group type and binding site have a significant effect on the defect formation energy. It is found that the C20F compound is significantly more stable than other considered systems, i.e., C20Cl, C20H, and C20OH.
