Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) are a promising nanomaterial due to their remarkable optical and mechanical properties, chemical robustness, and extended aspect ratios. Herein, we report the formation ...

Gallium nitride (GaN) is a binary III/V semiconductor seen as a potential successor to silicon. GaN has a wider bandgap than silicon, meaning it can maintain higher voltages in electronic devices.1 ...

POSTECH and University of Montpellier researchers demonstrate wafer-scale AA-stacked hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) growth.

Utilizing TAE Life Science’s novel boron-10 drugs and Kyoto University Research Reactor (KURR) neutron source has generated significant pre-clinical data that may redefine the potential of BNCT ...

Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is a critical nanomaterial for electronics, thermal management, and extreme conditions due to its high-temperature resistance, electrical insulation, piezoelectric ...

James Surjadi of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has won the NanoInFocus image contest for his entry, Three-Dimensional Nanoarchitected Hexagonal Boron Nitride.

Two forms of the same boron nitride molecules couldn’t look and act more different – but combining them could lead to applications that have the best of both worlds.

Boron nitride (BN) is a chemically and thermally resistant compound composed of equal parts nitrogen and boron. It comes as a powder or a solid and shares structural and electronic similarities with ...

Reinforcing hydrogels with boron nitride nanosheets enhances mechanical, thermal, and self-healing properties, making them versatile platforms for advanced electronics, biomedicine, soft robotics, and ...

Just as carbon makes up both the brittle core of a No. 2 pencil and the harder-than-steel diamond in a cutting tool, boron nitride gives rise to compounds that can be soft or hard. Yet, unlike ...
