With the raise in the utilization of nanomaterials in daily life, carbon nanostructures have received the attention of many researchers due to their special physical, chemical, and electrical properties. Chemical...

The smallest Schwarzite carbon with only heptagonal carbon rings

“…Compared with octagonal and nonagonal carbon rings, the heptagonal carbon ring is energetically more favorable due to the less inner tension. 24 However, the atomic configuration and physical properties of Schwarzite carbons with only seven-membered rings remain a research challenge.…”
