Synthesis of a magnetic π-extended carbon nanosolenoid with Riemann surfaces

Fabrication of large π-conjugated carbon nanosolenoid materials with helicoid topology remains a challenge. Here the authors demonstrate synthesis of a metal-free π-extended carbon nanosolenoid material with a helical structure, exhibiting unique photophysical and magnetic properties.
