A structurally stable crystalline carbon allotrope is predicted by means of the first-principles calculations. This allotrope can be derived by substituting each atom in diamond with a carbon ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Carbon is the fourth-most-abundant element in the universe and, depending on the arrangements of carbon atoms, takes on a wide variety of forms, called allotropes. Carbon ...

Mahle Powertrain and Allotrope Energy today unveiled a new lithium-carbon battery that it claims needs no rare earth metals and can recharge extremely quickly. So quickly, in fact, that the type of ...

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume. Robyn Williams: Physics and chemistry, as you know, defy common sense. For instance, what is carbon? Is ...

After some 30 years of trying different approaches to make a predicted allotrope of carbon, chemists have finally done it with a little atomic manipulation. The result is a ring of 18 carbon atoms ...

...while NREL-Mines innovation using electron paramagnetic resonance cuts degradation of silicon solar panels. Soaking up the sun: Pentagon-rich silicon allotrope Si22. Silicon continues to be the ...

The newest carbon allotrope is a mash-up of two classics. Graphene is highly conductive, while buckyballs (C 60) are insulators. Jian Zheng at the Chinese Academy of Sciences wanted to investigate ...

Disclosure Document 337,466 filed with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office on August 23, 1993 describes, for the first time in the published literature, certain hypothetical constructions known as 3-,4 ...
