(Nanowerk News) 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 ...

Despite the huge technological interest in boron nitride (BN), understanding the relative stability of its different structural phases remains a challenge owing to conflicting results from experiments ...

The team led by chemistry professor Holger Braunschweig at the University of Würzburg is investigating the ‘metal-mimetic’ properties of main group elements such as boron. They have shown that under ...

Even though it is listed in the periodic table, 1 the metallic element boron is not a naturally occurring element. It is found in small amounts in the earth’s surface, and it is thought to be produced ...
