Abstract:Nanoporous carbon is a widely studied material due to its potential applications in hydrogen storage or for filtering undesirable products. Most of the developments have been experimental although some simulation work has been carried out based on the use of graphene sheets and/or carbon chains and classical molecular dynamics. Here we present an application of our recently developed ab initio method [1] for the generation of group IV porous materials. The method consists in constructing a crystalline diamond … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
