Question

Why fullerenes are used as superconductors ?

Answer 1

Answer:

With the help of intercalated positively charged potassium ions, which work like a kind of cement, the negatively charged fullerenes stick to each other to form a solid. This so-called alkali fulleride is a metal which becomes superconductive below a critical temperature of around minus 250 degrees Celsius

Answer 2

Answer:

Because fullerenes are composed of carbon, high expectations are placed on this material as a "lightweight superconductor." However, it was difficult to obtain good quality superconductors with the reaction process used until now, as the percentage of the fullerene feedstock which displayed superconductivity was ...
