Synthesis, Characterization, and Modeling of Naphthyl-Terminated sp Carbon Chains: Dinaphthylpolyynes
Franco Cataldo, Luca Ravagnan, Eugenio Cinquanta +4
We report a combined study on the synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and theoretical modelling of a series of α,ω-dinaphthylpolyynes. We synthesized this family of naphtyl-t…
Vibrational properties of sp carbon atomic wires in cluster-assembled carbon films
Giovanni Onida, Nicola Manini, Luca Ravagnan +3
Linear chains made by a single row of sp-hybridized carbon are predicted to display fascinating mechano-electronic properties connected with their termination and stabilization ins…
Comment to "Imaging the atomic orbitals of carbon atomic chains with field-emission electron microscopy"
Nicola Manini, Giovanni Onida
The observation of a stable doublet pattern in the field-emission electron microscopy of a linear atomic chain requires a stable mechanism breaking the axial symmetry, which is not…
