In fullerenes, carbon atoms link together to form a hollow, cage-like structure. These molecules can take various shapes, including spheres, ellipsoids, and tubes. The most famous fullerene is C60, which resembles a soccer ball with a combination of pentagons and hexagons. This unique arrangement gives fullerenes distinct chemical and physical properties, making them of interest in various fields, including materials science and Nanotechnology.
