False colour electron micrograph of fractal amorphous carbon nano-foam with a large fraction of tetrahedrally-bonded atoms. The foam was produced by high-repetition-rate laser ablation in argon. The bulk density is in the range (2-10)x10-3g/cm3, - just above the density of air at atmospheric pressure. (micrograph: Andrei Rode)
