Various two-dimensional (2D) carbon allotropes with non-alternant topologies, such as pentaheptites and phagraphene, have been proposed. Predictions indicate that these metastable carbon polymorphs, which contain odd-numbered rings, possess unusual (opto)electronic properties. However, none of these materials has been achieved experimentally due to synthetic challenges. In this work, by using on-surface synthesis, nanoribbons of the non-alternant graphene allotropes, phagraphene and tetra-penta-hepta(TPH)-graphene have been obtained by dehydrogenative C-C coupling of 2,6-polyazulene chains. These chains were formed in a preceding reaction step via on-surface Ullmann coupling of 2,6-dibromoazulene. Low-temperature scanning probe microscopies with CO-functionalized tip and density functional theory calculations have been used to elucidate their structural properties. <br>

Graphene is the two-dimensional building block for carbon allotropes of every other dimensionality. We report the terahertz spectrum of Non-uniform graphene films based femtosecond probing with more than 6 THz spectral coverage and the 1 GHz resolution using high-speed asynchronous optical sampling, and it operates at 2 kHz scan rate without a mechanical delay stage. The overall waveform creates shock and the oscillation amplitude reached 0.37E-4 mV, main-peaks time delay is 151.83fs between graphene and substrate, frequency spectrum oscillatory fades at 2.8 THz and appeared obvious absorption peak.

Among the many potential two-dimensional carbon allotropes inspired by graphene, graphynes have received exceptional attention recently. Graphynes exhibit remarkable mechanical properties depending on their structure. The similar structure and two-dimensional nature of these materials yield many properties that are similar to those of graphene, but the presence of heterogeneous bond types is expected to lead to distinct properties. The main subject of this work is graphdiyne, one of the few graphynes that has been fabricated in large quantities. In this paper, we perform fracture analysis on graphdiyne and find a delocalized failure mechanism in which a crack propagates along a diagonal with respect its original direction. The covalence of the material allows for this simple but intriguing phenomenon to be investigated. Graphene is also tested to compare the behavior. This mechanism has implications for the toughness and robustness of this material, which is topical for many device applications recently proposed in the literature. Further, connections of such delocalized failure mechanisms are made to that of hidden length and sacrificial bonding in some biological systems such as proteins, bone, and nacre.
