Stabilization of Carbon Chain and Application on Metal-free Catalyst (SCCAMC)
For decades, sp-hybridized carbon allotropes remained the final missing piece in the carbon family. However, recent breakthroughs have fundamentally transformed our understanding of these elusive structures. Scientists have not only uncovered naturally occurring sp-carbon systems but also successfully engineered new structures, bridging a critical gap in carbon-based nanomaterials. These advances have largely extended the landscape of carbon materials science, proving that sp-hybridized carbon—once considered unstable or impractical—holds unique potential waiting to be unlocked.
Polyynes
Polyynes
Polyynes are a class of linear carbon chains (LCCs) characterized by alternating single and triple bonds (−C≡C−C≡C−).

Cyclo[n]carbon
Cyclo[n]carbon
Cyclo[n]carbons are pure carbon rings composed solely of sp-hybridized carbon atoms, forming a closed loop
Graphyne
Graphyne
Graphyne is a two-dimensional (2D) carbon allotrope composed of both sp and sp² hybridized carbon atoms, forming a planar crystalline lattice.
