First, we will give a general historical introduction of Carbon Science and Technology with emphasis in Nanoscience and the impact of great Carbon scientists. We will then provide an overview of current research challenges and trends in carbon science. One of the objectives of this talk is to motivate carbons scientists to discover and synthesize novel materials with unprecedented properties, and to fabricate novel functional devices. In particular, materials with different hybridization states will be discussed. These include 1) sp linear carbon chains, 2) sp²-graphene nanoribbons, 3) sp³-low-dimensional systems (flexible diamonds), and 4) three-dimensional (3D) graphene-based structures that are highly conducting, very robust and can operate at temperatures ranging from 77K to 1173K.

We will also discuss the synthesis of carbon nanotubes and nanotube networks using different dopants during chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In particular, the effects of sulfur, boron and nitrogen during growth will be summarized. It will be demonstrated that it is indeed possible to assemble novel micro-fluidic devices using nitrogen doped aligned carbon nanotubes. These devices can be used to trap and enrich human and animal viruses that could be then identified using genomic sequencing and Raman spectroscopy. This enrichment method coupled to Raman virus identification constitutes an innovative system that could be used to quickly track and monitor viral outbreaks in real-time.
