text: The Laves graph has been suggested as an allotrope of carbon, analogous to the more common graphene and graphite carbon structure which also have three bonds per atom at 120° angles. In graphene, adjacent atoms have the same bonding planes as each other, whereas in the Laves graph structure the bonding planes of adjacent atoms are twisted by an angle of approximately 70.5° around the line of the bond. However, this hypothetical carbon allotrope turns out to be unstable.
  The Laves graph may also give a crystal structure for boron, one which computations predict should be stable. Other chemicals that may form this structure include SrSi (from which the "srs net" name derives) and elemental nitrogen, as well as certain metal–organic frameworks and cyclic hydrocarbons.
  The electronic band structure for the tight-binding model of the Laves graph has been studied, showing the existence of Dirac and Weyl points in this structure.
