Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A new two-dimensional copper boride with a unique atomic structure has been identified, forming instead of borophene when boron is deposited on copper. High ...

Researchers have discovered a new 2D material, confirming decade-old prediction. More than ten years ago, researchers at Rice University led by materials scientist Boris Yakobson predicted that ...

(Nanowerk News) More than ten years ago, researchers at Rice University led by materials scientist Boris Yakobson predicted that boron atoms would cling too tightly to copper to form borophene, a ...

“Borophene is still a material at the brink of existence, and that makes any new fact about it important by pushing the envelope of our knowledge in materials, physics and electronics,” said ...

Researchers developed a green synthesis strategy using ionic liquids to control gold aerogel structure, boosting recyclability and catalytic degradation of pollutants. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Metal ...

While well-known examples such as graphene and borophene have been widely studied, 2D metal borides have largely remained out of reach due to longstanding challenges in synthesizing them. This new ...

More than ten years ago, researchers at Rice University led by materials scientist Boris Yakobson predicted that boron atoms would cling too tightly to copper to form borophene, a flexible ...

His work includes the synthesis of borophene. Stronger, lighter, and more flexible than graphene, borophene has the potential to revolutionize batteries, electronics, sensors, solar cells, and quantum ...

We report the synthesis of ruthenium nanocrystal-decorated vertically aligned graphene nanosheets grown on nickel foam. As an effective binder-free cathode for Li-O2 batteries, it can ...

More than ten years ago, researchers at Rice University led by materials scientist Boris Yakobson predicted that boron atoms would cling too tightly to copper to form borophene, a flexible, metallic ...
