And now, carbon can put one more feather in its cap—the ability to form single electron bonds. In new research, scientists ...

Chemists at Hokkaido University have experimentally confirmed the existence of a single-electron carbon-carbon bond for the first time (Nature 2024, DOI: 10.1038/s41586-024-07965-1). Linus Pauling ...

Researchers have created a new ultra-strong carbon called MAC, eight times stronger than graphene, opening the door to durable technologies.

Structure of the compound highlighting the C–C sigma bond (red). ... The possibility of a single electron bond between two carbon atoms was proposed by Linus Pauling in 1931.

The measurements revealed that with four nearest neighbors each, the systemics of liquid carbon are similar to solid diamond. “This is the first time we have ever been able to observe the structure of ...

Tulip trees have been around for millions of years, but a new analysis of their structure has revealed a previously unknown type of wood. The finding could explain why the trees are great at ...

Scientists have set up and observed a single electron bond between two carbon molecules. A traditional “single bond” is actually two electrons—one from each atom.

The structure of liquid carbon elucidated by in situ X-ray diffraction, in Nature, 2025 (DOI: 10.1038/s41586-025-09035-6) Additional information: Prof. Dominik Kraus ...
