Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Fullerene molecules
Fullerene molecules. Fullerenes are structural types (allotropes) of carbon. The three molecules at centre are buckminsterfullerenes (buckyballs) and have 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical structure consisting of interlinking hexagonal and pentagonal rings. The fullerene at right is a cylindrical fullerene (carbon nanotube) that has been bent to form a circular torus shape. Theoretically, a wide range of molecular shapes can be engineered at the molecular level using fullerenes. Such structures are being investigated for a wide range of technological and medical uses

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty and complexity of fullerene molecules, which are unique structural types of carbon. At the center of the image, three buckminsterfullerenes, also known as "buckyballs" take the spotlight. These fascinating molecules consist of 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical structure composed of interlinking hexagonal and pentagonal rings. To the right, we observe a cylindrical fullerene, or carbon nanotube, that has been skillfully bent into a circular torus shape. This artistic manipulation demonstrates the endless possibilities for engineering molecular shapes using fullerenes at a microscopic level. The photograph's composition highlights both symmetry and elegance as it captures these molecular structures in stunning detail. The closed sphere formed by buckyballs contrasts with the curved cylinder-turned-torus on its side, showcasing diverse forms within this realm of organic engineering. Fullerenes hold immense potential for various technological and medical applications currently under investigation. Scientists explore their properties to develop innovative solutions across multiple fields. From nanotechnology to chemical compositions and atomic structures, fullerenes offer an exciting avenue for exploration and discovery. This visually striking artwork not only serves as an educational tool but also sparks curiosity about our world's hidden wonders at a molecular scale. It reminds us that even within seemingly ordinary soot lies extraordinary beauty waiting to be unveiled through scientific exploration.
