- A fullerene is a molecule of carbon in the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, tube, and many other shapes.
- Spherical fullerenes, also referred to as Buckminsterfullerenes or buckyballs, resemble the balls used in association football.
- Cylindrical fullerenes are also called carbon nanotubes (buckytubes).
- Fullerenes are similar in structure to graphite, which is composed of stacked graphene sheets of linked hexagonal rings.
- Unless Fullerene are cylindrical, they must also contain pentagonal (or sometimes heptagonal) rings.
- The first fullerene molecule to be discovered, and the family's namesake, buckminsterfullerene (C60), was manufactured in 1985 by Richard Smalley, Robert Curl, James Heath, Sean O'Brien, and Harold Kroto at Rice University.
- Since the discovery of fullerenes in 1985, structural variations on fullerenes have evolved well beyond the individual clusters themselves.

In electronics, solders are main material to connect electrical components to substrates which are generally printed circuit boards. Although they are cheap, they are not effective if long term performance is considered since solders have low resistivity to corrosion relatively. Since corrosion reduce reliability, the cost of advanced technological systems such as RADAR, SONAR, LIDAR and more increase. In addition, small signals can be lost, and in huge data transfer, some of the data can be lost also especially which may lead catastrophic failures in critical systems. For instance, surface to air missiles can be launched to target which is not exist if the data coming from detection systems is noisy. Therefore, corrosion protection is necessary, and silver conductive adhesive paste is an essential candidate to replace PbSn solders due to its resistivity to corrosion. Silver conductive adhesive paste provide not only noisy reduction but also electromagnetic interference whi...
