Carbon fullerenes—specifically C 60, the spherical "bucky ball"—have received their fair share of attention, even in the shadow of the more buzz-worthy developments with carbon nanotubes and graphene.

Professor Zaifa Shi's team at Xiamen University developed an ultra-high temperature flash vacuum pyrolysis (UT-FVP) device to form giant fullerenes from single-carbon molecules within a short time (15 ...

A unique carbon nanomaterial, first discovered by astrochemists studying the formation of molecules around distant stars, could be critical to successfully harnessing energy from our Sun. Derived from ...

A study conducted by researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil and the Università degli Studi di Roma "La Sapienza" in Italy has synthesized fullerenes and hollow spherical graphene ...

A hands-off process for filling fullerenes with radioactive material is being tested to see if it will produce multi-modality material for better imaging and targeting of treatment of brain tumors.
