We use ab initio density functional calculations to study the formation and structural as well as thermal stability of cellular foamlike carbon nanostructures. These systems with a mixed sp2/sp3 bonding character may be viewed as bundles of carbon nanotubes fused to a rigid contiguous 3D honeycomb s…
