A simple tight-binding model for typical graphyne structures

A π -electronic tight-binding (TB) model with, at most, three independent parameters is found to well fit the density functional theory results about the dispersions of the conduction and valence bands of α -, β -, γ - and (6,6,12)-graphyne. By means of such a toy model, the electron–hole symmetry i...
