Scientists believe that the results of their research will enable the creation of antiviral fullerene-based medications with great prospects Carbon atoms can be bound to each other in different ...

Chemists in Matthew Jones’ lab at Rice University discovered that gold fullerenes (center) are one and the same as “seed” particles (top right) that scientists have long used to synthesize ...

In the mid-1980s a new class of carbon material was discovered called carbon 60 (C60). Harry Kroto and Richard Smalley, the experimental chemists who discovered C60 named it "buckminsterfullerene", in ...

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.

UMass Amherst researchers apply a layer of zwitterionic fullerenes to allow the use of any type of metal electrode in a more efficient, lightweight and low-cost organic solar cell. The advance ...
