Graphdiyne Powder

The past few years have seen significant advancement in the fabrication and development of new and interesting carbon allotropes. In 2010, a carbon allotrope called graphdiyne (GDY) was synthesized via a cross-coupling reaction onto the surface of copper. GDY is a 2-D carbon allotrope made up of sp and sp2 hybridized carbon atoms with adjacent hexagons connected by double acetylene links. It distinguishes itself from graphene by having a natural band gap of 0.47 eV. Research suggests that graphdiyne has the potential to be the most stable diacetylenic carbon allotrope; GDY demonstrates high thermal resistance, high electrical conductivity, and tremendous hardness. 

Researchers into the potential of GDY are just beginning to tap into this synthetically approachable material. Proposed applications include lithium storage and gas separation as well as use in electronic components such as transistors.
