Clarology for Conjugated Carbon Nano-Structures: Molecules, Polymers, Graphene, Defected Graphene, Fractal Benzenoids, Fullerenes, Nano- Tubes, Nano-Cones, Nano-Tori, etc
نویسندگان
چکیده
The 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional structures obtained from conjugated rings of carbon atoms are reviewed. They include finite small and large molecules (benzenoids, collarenes, beltenes, cyclacenes, cyclophenacenes, Möbius analogs, nanotori) and infinite macromolecules, nets and tilings (graphene, defected graphene, fractal benzenoids, nano-tubes, nano-cones, etc.). A few challenges for future experimental work are also outlined.

متن کاملElectronic ferroelectricity in carbon-based systems: from reality of organic conductors to promises of polymers and graphene nano-ribbons
Ferroelectricity is a rising demand in fundamental and applied solid state physics. Ferroelectrics are used in microelectronics as active gate materials, in capacitors, electrooptical-acoustic modulators, etc. There is a particular demand for plastic ferroelectrics, e.g. as a sensor for acoustic imaging in medicine and beyond, in shapeable capacitors, etc. Microscopic mechanisms of ferroelectri...
متن کامل9 Dynamics of nano tippe top
We investigate the motion of a nano tippe top, which is formed from a C60 fullerene, and which is assumed to be spinning on either a graphene sheet or the interior of a single-walled carbon nanotube. We assume no specific geometric configuration for the top, however for example, the nano tippe top might be formed by joining a fullerene C60 with a small segment of a smaller radius carbon nanotub...
متن کاملPhagraphene: A Low-Energy Graphene Allotrope Composed of 5-6-7 Carbon Rings with Distorted Dirac Cones.
Using systematic evolutionary structure searching we propose a new carbon allotrope, phagraphene [fæ'græfi:n], standing for penta-hexa-hepta-graphene, because the structure is composed of 5-6-7 carbon rings. This two-dimensional (2D) carbon structure is lower in energy than most of the predicted 2D carbon allotropes due to its sp(2)-binding features and density of atomic packing comparable to g...
