Résumé :
Renewed interest in polyynes and carbyne molecules and their chemical structures brought about by significant recent advances has created a need for a single resource on the subject. With contributions from experts and pioneers in the field, Polyynes: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications compiles into one cohesive volume information found scattered throughout the literature. It explains in great detail the conditions, apparatus, and experimental procedures to synthesize polyynes with consistent, reproducible results. This book reflects the thriving research on polyynes in various disciplines along with new ideas and guidelines for future research, discoveries, and applications....
