The crystal structure of graphyne is more complex than the octagonal lattice of carbon atoms that make graphene.
Though scientists have tried with limited success for more than a decade to synthesize a new form of carbon called "graphyne," a team of researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder has finally succeeded in creating the material in bulk.
Graphyne has long interested the scientific community because of its similarities to graphene, another form of carbon highly valued by industry. Yet despi...
