Fullerenes, or "buckyballs," are hollow ... has lost the usual anchoring stalk and is greatly expanded into sphere-like shapes around 7 centimeters wide." "The calyces of the two groups we studied ...

The interior of the fullerene sphere is large enough to house small molecules, such as water or hydrogen gas. Researchers have been able to trap molecules within the fullerene cavity using a ...

These include graphene and fullerenes, which are sp2 hybridized carbon with zero (flat-shaped) or positive (sphere-shaped) curvatures. Researchers now report the discovery of a new form of carbon ...

Fullerenes are ideal candidates for the nano-sphere. They are made of carbon atoms ... a macrocycle whose cavity was the perfect size and shape for a C(60) fullerene. Eighteen hydrogen atoms ...

Molecules consisting solely of carbon atoms are called fullerenes ... how much of a circumscribed sphere they fill, etc. But that would be a whole book on its own. The ancient Greeks ...
