A graphene composed of pentagons and octagons

We report a possible stable structure of graphene on basis of the first principle calculation. This possible two-dimensional (2D) structure consists of pentagons and octagons (PO), and likely be formed from ordinary graphene by periodically inserting specific defects. Its density is 2.78 Atom/Å2 an...
