Were studied in detail. e. Fullerenes The carbon cluster C60 was firstly found in the soot formed by laser ablation in He atmosphere [68,69] and named as buckmisterfullerene. C60 was also found in the soot formed through the vaporization of carbon vapor from the graphite rod heated at high temperatures in He atmosphere [70]. Also in the carbon deposits formed by arc discharge between graphite electrodes a relatively high concentration of fullerenes were found [71]. This carbon cluster C60 could be isolated using the solvents, such as benzene, carbon disulfide, etc.

3 Nanotexture In the graphite family, the fundamental structural unit is a layer of carbon hexagons, which has a strong anisotropy because the bonds in the layer are covalent and those between the layers are van der Waals-like. As a consequence, these anisotropic layers tend to be oriented during their agglomeration to form certain morphologies as carbon solids. Therefore, the way to agglomerate gives different schemes and different degrees of preferred orientation of layers, and results in a variety of carbon materials, in addition to the mixing ratio of ABAB and turbostratic stacking.

F. Graphenes The chemical vapor deposition process is one of preparation methods for graphene [76]. Graphene grown on polycrystalline Pt foil by ambient pressure CVD with a low concentration of methane at 1040 C is shown in Fig. 40 [77]. The graphene thus synthesized has hexagonal morphology with high crystal perfection and is grown to millimeter-size during 180 min. 3 Solid phase carbonization In the process of solid phase carbonization, the difference in heating rate gives many different carbon materials.
