Using a modern imaging technology known as cryo-electron microscopy, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have ...

The double layer structure of two ionic liquids (ILs), 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium ... electrode interface is probed using Atomic Force Microscopy force measurements. The force-separation profiles ...

Ever since graphene’s discovery 2 decades ago, the iconic 1-atom-thick sheet of carbon has inspired researchers to create a ...

where atoms tend to sit on top of the metal without forming a true new structure. In this case, the boron atoms bonded tightly with copper to create a distinct atomic pattern that had never been ...

The nitrides of aluminium, gallium and indium have the hexagonal wurtzite structure. The nitride of boron, the lightest of the group III elements, has a graphite-like hexagonal layer lattice.

Unlike systems such as graphene on copper, where atoms may diffuse into the substrate without forming a distinct alloy, the boron atoms in this case formed a defined 2D copper boride ⎯ a new ...

The juxtaposition of the two findings highlights both the promise and the challenge of working with boron at the atomic scale: its versatility allows for surprising structures but also makes it ...

The MIT team has found that when four or five sheets of graphene are stacked in this "rhombohedral" configuration, the resulting structure can ... off the material's atomic latticework. Each time an ...
