Researchers had investigated the Wurtzite structure of boron nitride (w-BN, a repeating array of hexagons in 3-dimensional space) in the past, but it had inferior properties to the cubic structure ...

Summary. While a critical material for many emerging and established products, boron is consistently overlooked largely due to the mundane, or overly complex, industries it plays a role in.

The nitride of boron, the lightest of the group III elements, has a graphite-like hexagonal layer lattice. Nature - Boron Phosphide, a III–V Compound of Zinc-Blende Structure Skip to main content ...

In an effort to discover new 2D materials, a team of scientists from Ames National Laboratory determined the structure of boron monoxide. This compound was first discovered in the 1940s and maintained ...

Dr. Artem Oganov shows the crystal structure of the new phase of boron. Boron has long been known as a graveyard of great scientific reputations. Its bizarre tale started in 1808, when two great teams ...

Understanding the structure of this one could lead to the synthesis of other useful boron-based 2D materials. “What really excites me is just the fact that this is an old problem. It’s such a basic ...
