“This happens regardless of the specific properties of the 2D material. So, whether you use semiconducting MoS2, semi-metal graphene or insulator h-BN (hexagonal boron nitride), they can play ...

The material, called hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), is used in semiconductor devices and can also enhance the performance of other two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene and transition ...

A recent study published in npj 2D Materials and Applications explores hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) atomristors, highlighting their notable memory window, low leakage current, and minimal power ...

The isolation of graphene at Manchester sparked a revolution in materials science and led to the classification of a host of other similar atomically thin materials such as hexagonal boron nitride, ...

A multi-institutional research team has engineered a way to preserve the electrical properties of materials as they are shrunk to the nanoscale. The use of the soft substrate hexagonal boron nitride ...

Perfect alignment of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride demonstrates the potential of the technique in twistronics applications. Using the in-situ technique, the researchers successfully rotated 2D ...

What if your electronic devices could adapt on the fly to temperature, pressure, or impact? Thanks to a new breakthrough in ...

barrier and thermal management properties of our homopolymer PIB encapsulant can be improved by the addition of two-dimensional (2D) inorganic fillers, namely few-layer hexagonal boron nitride (h ...

A research group led by Prof. SHENG Zhigao from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, recently discovered the disappearance of nonreciprocal second harmonic ...
