Abstract:

As a new all-carbon material, 2D graphdiyne has attracted more and more attention due to its preparation under low-temperature. Graphdiyne, consisting of layers containing sp and sp2 carbons, was proposed as one of the synthetically approachable carbon allotropes. In graphdiyne, each benzene ring is connected to six adjacent benzene rings through two carbon–carbon triple bonds, resulting in a flat porous structure exhibiting high chemical stability and electrical conductivity. Graphdiyne families have attracted great attention of many structural, theoretical and synthetic scientists, due to their promising electronic, optical and mechanical properties. The physical properties of graphdiyne have also been systemically investigated and the applications of graphdiyne in the fields of energy, optoelectronics and catalysis have been achieved.
