Electronic band gaps of confined linear carbon chains ranging from polyyne to carbyne
Lei Shi, Philip Rohringer, Marius Wanko +7
Ultra long linear carbon chains of more than 6000 carbon atoms have recently been synthesized within double-walled carbon nanotubes, and they show a promising new route to one--ato…

Confined linear carbon chains: A route to bulk carbyne
Lei Shi, Philip Rohringer, Kazu Suenaga +6
The extreme instability and strong chemical activity of carbyne, the infinite sp1 hybridized carbon chain, are responsible for its low possibility to survive in ambient conditions.…
