thanks
I think the solution for my problem is firstly optimize the latticeconstat paremeter.
Thanks

Then, how is there several papers about fullerenes bands structures (see
for example)

Because in that paper fullerenes are packed in a fcc lattice in such a way that they DO interact with each other. The system is a crystal where at every lattice site you have a fullerene instead of an atom (apparently that is called a "fullerene-cubane cocrystal").

I think the idea is to put the fullerene is to use a fcc unit cell, but
unit cell would be enough larg to avoid interaccion between different
molecules.

If you reduce your fcc cell lattice parameter you should recover the results of the paper you mention. That, incidentally, would be the bands structure of a molecular solid built with fullerenes, but not "the band structure of a fullerene" (there is no such thing).

Good luck,
Riccardo
