title: Body-Centered Tetragonal C16: A Novel Topological Node-Line Semimetallic Carbon Composed of Tetrarings.
abstract: The present work not only predicts the existence of 3D topological semimetallic carbon allotropes composed of tetrarings, but also provides a likely crystalline structure for the unknown phase produced in the detonation soot.
