Derived from the soccer-ball-shaped ‘buckminsterfullerene’ molecule, fullerene-based nanomaterials are a key ingredient in some of the first commercial, high-performance, organic photovoltaic ...

In zero-dimensional (0D) nanomaterials, all dimensions are confined to the ... Watch an animation of various nanotubes and a fullerene (buckyball) CNTs are now available commercially in limited ...

Not only that, but fullerenes offered a conceptual blueprint for some of the most widely studied nanomaterials today — extending a fullerene in a single dimension produces a carbon nanotube ...

The classification of nanomaterials is based on the number of dimensions of a material, which are outside the nanoscale (<100 nm) range. Accordingly, in zero-dimensional (0D) nanomaterials all the ...

Nanomaterials have at least one of their dimensions ... Another carbon nanomaterial, fullerene, exists in various forms, including C60 which is commonly used in the medical field as an ...

It houses multiple laser reactors capable of synthesizing carbon nanomaterials including single and multiwall carbon nanotubes and fullerenes as well as the wet chemistry hoods and furnaces needed for ...

Having joined Nano-C in 2001, shortly after its foundation while being a Research Associate in the Department of Chemical Engineering of MIT, Dr. Richter has been working extensively for more than 15 ...
