Hexagonal boron nitride has a layered crystalline structure in a hexagonal lattice arrangement composed of alternating boron and nitrogen atoms held together by strong covalent bonds. This structure ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

As opposed to ice I’s hexagonal crystalline structure, ice VII has a cubic structure. Plastic ice VII has the same cubic structure as regular ice VII, but as the name suggests it’s a little more ...

A recent article in Scientific Reports detailed the characterization of disordered structures in graphene and monolayer hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) induced by low-energy argon ion irradiation. The ...

The HS-I, CS-I, and CS-II structures of hydrate correspond to the Z, A15, and C15 phases of the Frank-Kasper phase, respectively. With the discovery of HS-I, the primitive structures at the three ...
