What is "fullerenes"

Usage examples of "fullerenes".

Combining this with the suitable use of a benzene solvent, an almost-pure mixture of fullerenes was formed.

Like lasers in 1965, five years after the first one was built, fullerenes seem to be a solution waiting for a problem.

And like lasers, fullerenes will almost certainly become enormously valuable technological tools in the next thirty years.

If the Chay are so much better at creating fullerenes than we are with our sputtering techniques—"

And a couple centuries ago, on Earth anyway, came the first detections of fullerenes in impact craters from meteorites and comet fragments.

The fullerenes created during those impacts sometimes trapped atoms from the original cometary material inside their lattice structures, so that when you took the fullerene apart, inside it you would have a little piece of that original cometary material.

When the forensics team was done sweeping the pirate vessel, there was a fairly high incidence of fullerenes found on its hull.

Difficult to say why, in this particular case, but they do match the fullerenes I found on the Alpheccan’s vessel.

The Beast was fully self-operating, and though there were some problems to be solved in sorting out the recently discovered full fullerenes, there must have been local ion chromatographers who could have done the job.
