Spectroscopical investigation of carbon nanostructures
Montalti, Massimo Carbon is the only element in the IV column to have both the sp2 and the sp3 bonding, and this allows it to have an allotropic form. Different carbon nanostructures with a different number of carbon atoms and geometrical shape can obtained.These imply different electronic properties according to the geometrical structures. They are smaller, longer, cleaner, and more chemically manipulable than the semiconducting or metallic counterparts up to ...
