Hyperbolic materials are receiving significant attention due to their ability to support electromagnetic fields with arbitrarily high momenta and, hence, to achieve very strong light confinement. Here, based on first-principles calculations…
The associated magnetic moments of the periodic rotational motion of methyl groups in hexamethylbenzene C$_6$(CH$_3$)$_6$ were recently identified to contribute to its overall magnetic susceptibility. Those measurements however, were only…
Coronene, a polyaromatic hydrocarbon, has been crystallized for the first time in a different polymorph using a crystal growth method that utilizes magnetic fields to access a unit cell configuration that was hitherto unknown. Crystals…
We propose a simple yet effective route to the design of superalkalis, by successive alkali metal substitution in borazine (B3N3H6). Using Li atoms, our density functional calculations demonstrate that the vertical ionization energy (VIE)…
The subcarbides B12C3 and B13C2 known for their abrasive properties, can be structurally considered as carbon inserted rhombohedral alpha-B12 and expressed as B12{C-C-C} and B12(C-B-C). Using density functional theory DFT computations, the…
In this paper, we report a new boron nitride molecular structure called BN-nanobelt, an inorganic analog of (12) cyclophenacene synthesized in 2017. An extensive investigation using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Quantum Molecular…
Hyper-Raman scattering spectra of vitreous B$_2$O$_3$ are reported and compared to Raman scattering results. The main features are indexed in terms of vibrations of structural units. Particular attention is given to the low frequency boson…
New boron-rich sulfide B6S and selenide B6Se have been discovered from high pressure - high temperature synthesis combined with ab initio evolutionary crystal structure prediction, and studied by synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman…
Recently synthesized two-dimensional (2D) boron, borophene, exhibits a novel metallic behavior rooted in the s-p orbital hybridization, distinctively different from other 2D materials such as sulfides/selenides and semi-metallic graphene.…
$8-Pmmn$ borophene is a polymorph of borophene which hosts an anisotropic tilted Dirac cone. Using a low energy effective Hamiltonian for borophene, we analytically calculate the density-density response function of borophene and study its…
We report a successful preparation of a purely honeycomb, graphene-like borophene, by using an Al(111) surface as the substrate and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth in ultrahigh vacuum. Our scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) reveals…
Borophene, an atomically thin, corrugated, crystalline two-dimensional boron sheet, has been recently synthesized. We investigate mechanical properties and lattice thermal conductivity of borophene via reactive molecular dynamics…
In recent years, several aromatic molecules (benzene-based rings) have been detected in the cold molecular cloud TMC-1, with its CN-derivative, benzonitrile (c-C$_6$H$_5$CN), also identified in other nearby cold sources. However, observed…
Two-dimensional boron (borophene) is featured by its structural polymorphs and distinct in-plane anisotropy, opening opportunities to achieve tailored electronic properties by intermixing different phases. Here, using scanning tunneling…
Two dimensional materials are attracting new research for optoelectronics and spintronics due to their unique physical properties. A wide range of emerging spintronic devices are achieved from parent and doped two dimensional materials.…
The structures, stability, mechanical and electronic properties of a-boron and its twined brother a*-boron have been studied by first-principles calculations. Both a-boron and a*-boron consist of equivalent icosahedra B12 clusters in…
Arsenene, a new group V two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting material beyond phosphorene and antimonene, has recently gained an increasing attention owning to its various interesting properties which can be altered or intentionally…
An ab initio density functional study was performed investigating the adsorption of CO$_2$ on the neutral boron B$_{n}$ ($n = 10-13$) clusters, characterized by planar and quasiplanar ground-state atomic structures. For all four clusters,…
Considering rhombohedral alpha-boron, rh-B12 as a matrix hosting interstitials particularly triatomic linear ones as in B12C3 better known as B4C, the subnitride B12N3 is proposed herein. The N3 triatomic linear alignment labeled N2-N1-N2…
Two-dimensional metals, such as graphene, have undergone extensive exploration, with graphene exhibiting a metallic response limited to the infrared spectral range. Overcoming the challenge of extending the electron mobility in…
