“…The rising interest in these structures, however, is not only because they might have interesting properties, but also because they are supposed to be the rst all-sp 2 3D carbon honeycomb structures observed (and derived) experimentally. Similar 3D honeycomb structures have been proposed and studied theoretically, [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] but to the best of our knowledge, none of them are composed entirely of sp 2 carbon atoms. They are rather composed of sp 2 atoms at the graphitic walls and sp 3 atoms at the junctions, and they might also be random or periodic, like the structures proposed by Krainyukova and Zubarev.…”
