Fig. 1: Molecular structures of 3-dimensional carbonaceous nanostructures.

From: Gas phase synthesis of the C40 nano bowl C40H10

Fig. 1

The smallest nanobowl, corannulene [1], as well as the C40 nanobowl [2] emphasized as a molecular building block of Buckminsterfullerene (C60) [3], rugbyballene (C70) [4], and end-capped (5,5) armchair nanotubes [5]. The C40 nanobowl carbons are black, the remaining carbons are gray, and the hydrogens are white.
