Carbon nanostructures offer exciting new possibilities in the development of new particle detectors. Graphene is a 2-dimensional material, therefore a Dark Matter particle with mass between 1 MeV and 1 GeV can eject an electron from the carbon lattice directly into the vacuum. We will report on the development of two novel light dark matter detectors: the "G-FET', based on graphene nanoribbons and mainly developed at Princeton University within the framework of the PTOLEMY project; and the "dark-PMT", based on aligned carbon nanotubes and mainly developed at INFN Rome and Sapienza University, where a state-of-the art carbon nanotube growing facility was recently built and commissioned.
