Currently, there is an ever-growing interest in carbon materials with increased deformation-
strength, thermophysical parameters. Due to their unique physical and chemical properties …

This review provides a discussion of the current state of research on linear carbon structures
and related materials based on sp-hybridization of carbon atoms (polyynes and cumulenes) …

Chemical equations that balance bond types and atom hybridization to different degrees are
often used in computational thermochemistry, for example, to increase accuracy when lower …

The current paper presents a state-of-the-art review in the field of interaction of atomic and
molecular clusters with solids. We do not attempt to overview the entire broad field, but …

Conjugated organic polymers generally must include large substituents for stability, either
contained within or appended to the polymer chain. In polydiacetylenes, the substituents …

Besides graphite and diamond, the solid allotropes of carbon in sp2 and sp3 hybridization,
the possible existence of a third allotrope based on the sp-carbon linear chain, the carbyne …

The first electrical-transport measurements of monatomic carbon chains are reported in this
study. The chains were obtained by unraveling carbon atoms from graphene ribbons while …

Nanostructured carbon films produced by supersonic cluster beam deposition have been
studied by<? format?> in situ Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectra show the formation of …

Carbyne, the sp 1-hybridized phase of carbon, is still a missing link in the family of carbon
allotropes. While the bulk phases of carbyne remain elusive, the elementary constituents …

Molecules composed of a contiguous sequence of double bonds, the [n] cumulenes, share
structural similarities to both of their conjugated relatives, the polyenes and polyynes. The …
