Allotropes of carbon
Videos
Carbon is capable of forming many allotropes due to its valency. Well-known forms of carbon include diamond and graphite. In recent decades, many more allotropes have been discovered and researched, i

…In nanotechnology, a carbon nanobud is a material that combines carbon nanotubes and spheroidal fullerenes, both allotropes of carbon, forming "buds" attached to the tubes. Carbon nanobuds were discovered and synthesized in 2006. In this material, fullerenes are bonded with covalent…

The K4 crystal
Diamond and graphite are two allotropes of carbon: pure forms of the same element that differ in structure.
