They published their work on July. 6 in Energy Material Advances. "In 2017, we reported a new family of 2D transition metal borides as analogues to MXenes and coined a catchy name for them, MBenes," ...

Scientists have created a process to make patterns in atom-thick layers that combine a conductor -- graphene -- and an insulator -- hexagonal boron nitride. The process may lead to new possibilities ...

Individual boron and nitrogen atoms are clearly distinguished by their intensity in Fig. 1. Each single hexagonal ring of the BN structure, for instance the one marked by the green circle in the ...

Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), an insulating material only one atom thick, is suitable for industrial-scale production. It is used in semiconductor devices and enhances the performance of other 2D ...
