    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropes_of_carbon

    D-carbon: D-carbon was proposed by theorists in 2018. [33] D-carbon is an orthorhombic sp 3 carbon allotrope (6 atoms per cell). Total-energy calculations demonstrate that D-carbon is energetically more favorable than the previously proposed T 6 structure (with 6 atoms per cell) as well as many others.

  3. Allotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropy

    Diamond and graphite are two allotropes of carbon: pure forms of the same element that differ in crystalline structure.. Allotropy or allotropism (from Ancient Greek ἄλλος (allos) 'other' and τρόπος (tropos) 'manner, form') is the property of some chemical elements to exist in two or more different forms, in the same physical state, known as allotropes of the elements.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diatomic_carbon

    Diatomic carbon (systematically named dicarbon and 1λ 2,2λ 2-ethene), is a green, gaseous inorganic chemical with the chemical formula C=C (also written [C 2] or C 2). It is kinetically unstable at ambient temperature and pressure, being removed through autopolymerisation .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_group

    Amorphous carbon is a third allotrope of carbon; it is a component of soot. Another allotrope of carbon is a fullerene, which has the form of sheets of carbon atoms folded into a sphere. A fifth allotrope of carbon, discovered in 2003, is called graphene, and is in the form of a layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb-shaped formation.

    Carbon is the sixth element, with a ground-state electron configuration of 1s 2 2s 2 2p 2, of which the four outer electrons are valence electrons. Its first four ionisation energies, 1086.5, 2352.6, 4620.5 and 6222.7 kJ/mol, are much higher than those of the heavier group-14 elements.

  9. Graphene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphene

    It is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a plane of sp 2-bonded atoms with a molecular bond length of 0.142 nm (1.42 Å). In a graphene sheet, each atom is connected to its three nearest carbon neighbors by σ-bonds , and a delocalized π-bond , which contributes to a valence band that extends over the whole sheet.
