We report on various nanocarbons formed from a unique structural pattern containing two pentagons, three hexagons and two heptagons, resulting from local rearrange- ments around a divacancy in pristine graphene or nanotubes. This defect can…
Various properties of water are affected by confinement as the space-filling of the water molecules is very different from bulk water. In our study, we challenged the creation of a stable system in which water molecules are permanently…

Over the past 20 years, nanocarbons have become more significant as nanostructured fillers in composites and, more recently, as functional elements in a brand-new class of hybrid materials. Microwave-assisted synthesis and processing is a…
