Fullerene is an allotrope of carbon that has a three-dimensional structure in the form of a soccer ball. It consists of carbon atoms that are arranged in hexagons and pentagons, similar to the pattern on a soccer ball. Fullerene was discovered in 1985 and is also sometimes referred to as buckminsterfullerene or Buckyball in honor of the architect Buckminster Fuller.
