Graphdiyne: from Preparation to Biomedical Applications

Graphdiyne(GDY) is a kind of two-dimensional carbon nanomaterial with specific configurations of sp and sp(2) carbon atoms. The key progress in the preparation and application of GDY is bringing carbon materials to a brand-new level. Here, the various properties and structures of GDY are introduced, including the existing strategies for the preparation and modification of GDY. In particular, GDY has gradually emerged in the field of life sciences with its unique properties and performance, therefore, the development of biomedical applications of GDY is further summarized. Finally, the challenges of GDY toward future biomedical applications are discussed.
