Claim Text:
1. A fullerene arc source comprising: an anode and a cathode; wherein the anode comprises a triggering end and an anode pushing shaft, the cathode comprises a cathode shaft and a cathode trigger; wherein the anode, the cathode shaft and the cathode trigger form a closed current circuit; wherein the cathode trigger is located at one end of the cathode shaft; the anode and the cathode shaft are both located on a same side of the cathode trigger; wherein the triggering end of the anode is perpendicular to the cathode trigger; wherein when the triggering end contacts with the cathode trigger, an arc forms to evaporate the triggering end to obtain a mixture containing fullerene therein; and wherein the fullerene arc source is in an ambience of inert gases.
