The complex crystal chemistry of elemental boron has led to numerous proposed structures with distinctive motifs as well as contradictory findings. Herein, evolutionary structure searches performed at 100 GPa have uncovered a series of…

The 300 K equation of state of cubic (zinc-blende) boron phosphide BP has been studied by in situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction with synchrotron radiation up to 55 GPa. The measurements have been performed under quasi-hydrostatic…

A multitude of observed boron-based materials have outstanding superconducting, mechanical, and refractory properties. Yet, the structure, the composition, and the very existence of some reported metal boride (M-B) compounds have been a…

We present a structural analysis of the substituted system (Ba$_{1-x}$Sr$_{x}$)CuSi$_{2}$O$_{6}$, which reveals a stable tetragonal crystal structure down to 1.5 K. We explore the structural details with lowtemperature neutron and…

Boron bulk crystals are marked by exceptional structural complexity and unusual related physical phenomena. Recent reports of hydrogenated $\alpha$-tetragonal and a new $\delta$-orthorhombic boron B$_{52}$ phase have raised many fundamental…

Microstructure of boron subphosphide B12P2 produced by self-propagated high-temperature synthesis has been studied by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Two systems of twins have been found i.e. conventional twins on the…

Cubic boron phosphide BP has been studied in situ by X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering up to 55 GPa at 300 K in a diamond anvil cell. The bulk modulus of B0 = 174(2) GPa has been established, which is in excellent agreement with our ab…

A new boron-rich ternary phase, Mg4Fe1.1B13.9, was discovered in the Mg-Fe-B-N quaternary system. This novel phase appears in the form of plate-like shaped crystals formed on the surface of Fe-substituted MgB2 during high-pressure,…

Boron is an element of fascinating chemical complexity. Controversies have shrouded this element since its discovery was announced in 1808: the new 'element' turned out to be a compound containing less than 60-70 percent of boron, and it…

Boron nitride (BN) is a structurally versatile insulator since it can be found in several crystalline structures with interesting mechanical and electrical properties, making this material attractive for technological applications. Seeking…
