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 ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

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 ...

Using the latest in aberration-corrected electron microscopy, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory and their colleagues have obtained the first images that ...
