Abstract
This work attempts to give a general zoom to the nanostructured carbon materials from their appearance, discovery and fabrication, until their applications and impacts in the scientific field. The three main carbon nano-allotropes: fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and graphene, are revised in order to stablish a general overview. Finally, some alternatives on the potential growing of these materials are also presented.
