This is a review of atomic pair distribution function (PDF) analysis as applied to the study of
molecular materials. The PDF method is a powerful approach to study short-and …

Because the synthesis of polyacetylene (PA) thin film and the discovery of chemical doping
disclosed the uncultivated field of conductive polymers, 1r3 conductive polymers have been …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are now well into their teenage years. Early on, theoretical
predictions and experimental data showed that CNTs possess chemical and mechanical …

Graphene is the strongest material ever studied and can be an efficient substitute for silicon.
This six-volume handbook focuses on fabrication methods, nanostructure and atomic …

The electrochemistry in energy conversion and storage (ECS) not only relies on the active
species in catalysts or energy-storage materials, but also involves mass/ion transport around …

In this communication, we report a novel preparation of the helical carbon nanofibril-
fabricated thin film from the iodine-doped filmy helical polyacetylene through a carbonization …

One-handed helical graphite films with a hierarchically controlled morphology were
prepared from iodine-doped helical polyacetylene (H-PA) films using the recently developed …

The discovery of several carbon nanostructures and different allotropic phases has
tremendously increased the interest towards pure carbons for their applications and for …

Graphene is the strongest material ever studied and in the future may be an efficient
substitute for silicon. There is no other major reference work of this scope on the topic of …

We have investigated through fully atomistic reactive molecular dynamics and density
functional theory simulations, the mechanical properties and fracture dynamics of single …
