Recently, two-dimensional (2D) boron sheets, namely borophenes, have drawn great interests of materials scientists because of their analogy to graphene. However, the understanding on how the material ...

Researchers from the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with collaborators from the University of Science and Technology of China, have revealed the formation of boron ...

One such material that has attracted considerable interest is borophene - a single-atom-thick sheet of boron atoms. First theoretically predicted in the 1990s, borophene remained elusive ...
