Nanotubes and two-dimensional sheet-like compounds containing tetraoxa[8]circulene core units are theoretically predicted. The large cavities with a diameter of 6 Å in the 2D sheets could be useful for hydrogen storage. The designed compounds are predicted to adsorb strongly in the visible region and to be a promising material for nanophotonics because of their electron-donor properties (p-type semiconductors).
理论上预测了含有四氧杂[8]轮烯核心单元的纳米管和二维片状化合物。二维片层中直径为 6 Å 的大空腔可用于储氢。由于其电子给体性质（p 型半导体），设计的化合物预计在可见光区域具有很强的吸附能力，并有望成为纳米光子学的一种有前途的材料。
