Abstract

Graphynes (GYs) are a series of artificial carbon allotropes composed of sp- and sp2-hybridized carbon atoms. Although theoretical studies predict many possible GY structures, synthesizing them as real materials is extremely challenging. Among a few synthesized GYs, γ-GY has attracted extensive research interest over the past decade because it is predicted to possess fascinating properties such as direct bandgap, tunable electronic structure, high carrier mobility, two-dimensional ultrathin nature, and nanoporosity. This review first describes the structures and intrinsic properties of γ-GY predicted using theoretical calculations and introduces its potential applications based on the predicted properties. Further, this review summarizes the reported synthesis methods of γ-GY, including mechanochemical synthesis, Sonogashira coupling, Castro–Stephens coupling, and alkyne metathesis, and discusses their advantages and limitations. The material quality of γ-GY synthesized by each method is evaluated according to characterization results. Finally, this review outlines the challenges and opportunities in this field, critically highlighting that at present, most of the synthesized γ-GY materials lack long-range structural order and precise control over the layer number, defects, and impurities. As the synthesis of a well-defined high-quality material is the basis for reliable mechanistic and performance studies, this review aims to inspire the development of more efficient synthesis methods for γ-GY and other types of GYs.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
