Preface

This book entitled *Fullerenes and Relative Materials*: *Properties and Applications* considers some aspects of the synthesis, structural, vibrational, tribology, optical, and nonlinear optical properties of the fullerenes and relative materials to some area of the applications. It consists of eight chapters including the introductory one. All chapters present the results of the unique properties of the materials studied in the different areas of their applications, includ‐ ing the general optoelectronics, solar energy and gas storage, laser and display, and biome‐ dicine. It is important for the education process and for civil and special device operations. The advanced idea, the special approach, and the information described in the current book will be fruitful for readers to find a sustainable solution in a fundamental study and in the technique. The book can be useful for students, postgraduate students, engineers, research‐
