Donald R. Huffman (born 1935) is a Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Arizona.[1] With Wolfgang Krätschmer, he developed a technique in 1990 for the simple production of large quantities of C60, or Buckminsterfullerene.[2][3][4] Previously, in 1982~1983, he and Krätschmer had found, in a UV spectrum, the first signal of C60 ever observed.[5]
Huffman was featured prominently in "Race to Catch a Buckyball", a 1995 episode of the Nova documentary series.[6]
