Graphdiyne oxide: a new carbon nanozyme†
Abstract
Graphdiyne (GDY) is a new recently-synthesized carbon allotrope. We find here that graphdiyne oxide (GDYO), the oxidized form of GDY, can serve as a new kind of carbon nanozyme mimicking peroxidase. This finding essentially offers a new platform for fundamental understanding of carbon nanozymes and broadens the application of GDY.
