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.…

Borophene, the boron atom analogue to graphene, being atomic thick have been just recently experimentally fabricated. In this work, we employ first-principles density functional theory calculations to investigate the interaction of Ca, Mg,…

Two-dimensional (2D) structures of boron atoms so called borophene, have recently attracted remarkable attention. In a latest exciting experimental study, a hydrogenated borophene structure was realized. Motivated by this success, we…

In this work, we explore the structure of single-wall boron nanotubes with large diameters (about 21~{\AA}) and a broad range of surface densities of atoms. The computations are done using an evolutionary approach combined with a nearest…

Elementary semiconductors are rare and attractive, especially for low-dimensional materials. Unfortunately, most of boron nanostructures were found to be metallic, despite of their typical semiconducting bulk structure. Herein, we propose a…

The search of new superhard materials has received a strong impulse by industrial demands for low-cost alternatives to diamond and $c$-BN, such as metal borides. In this Letter we introduce a new family of superhard materials, "fused…

Boron is the fifth element in the periodic table and possesses rich chemistry second only to carbon. A striking feature of boron is that B12 icosahedral cages occur as the building blocks in bulk boron and many boron compounds. This is in…

The past decade has witnessed numerous discoveries of two-dimensional (2D) semimetals and insulators, whereas 2D metals are rarely identified. Borophene, a monolayer boron sheet, has recently emerged as a perfect 2D metal with unique…

Borophene is a two-dimensional material made out of boron atoms only. It exhibits polymorphism and different allotropes can be studied in terms of a rigid electronic structure, where only the occupation of the states change with the respect…

In 2015, a new two dimensional (2D) carbon allotrope, called phagraphene, was theoretically proposed. Based on this structure, we propose here a new boron nitride structure called phaBN. It is composed by three types of rings: pentagons,…
