Allotropy is the property of some chemical elements to exist in two or more different forms, or allotropes, when found in nature. There are several allotropes of carbon.

Allotropes of CarbonAllotropes of carbon:

• $\large{ \red{\mathfrak{ \underline{\overline{\mid \:\: diamond\:\: \mid}}}}}$
• $\large{ \red{\mathfrak{ \underline{\overline{\mid \:\: graphite \:\: \mid}}}}}$
• $\large{ \red{\mathfrak{ \underline{\overline{\mid \:\:Lonsdaleite, \:\: \mid}}}}}$
• C60 (Buckminsterfullerene or buckyball),
• C540,
• C70,
• Amorphous carbon, and
• single-walled carbon nanotube, or buckytube.

• Diamond is a well-known allotrope of carbon that exhibits hardness and high dispersion of light. It is the hardest known natural mineral and finds applications in cutting, drilling, and jewelry, and as a potential semiconductor material.

• Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in one plane; layers of graphene make up graphite. Graphene is a material of interest due to its high electron mobility and its possible applications in electronics.

• Fullerenes are a class of carbon allotropes in which carbon takes the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, or tube. This class of materials includes carbon nanotubes, buckyballs, and the newly discovered nanobuds.
