The high-pressure phase of boron, {\gamma}-B28: disputes and conclusions of 5 years after discovery [PDF]
{\gamma}-B28 is a recently established high-pressure phase of boron. Its structure consists of icosahedral B12 clusters and B2 dumbbells in a NaCl-type arrangement (B2){\delta}+(B12){\delta}- and displays a significant charge transfer {\delta}~0.5- 0.6 ...

Absence of boron aggregates in superconducting silicon confirmed by atom probe tomography
Superconducting boron-doped silicon films prepared by gas immersion laser doping (GILD) technique are analyzed by atom probe tomography. The resulting three-dimensional chemical composition reveals that boron atoms are incorporated into crystalline ...

The theoretical study on interaction of hydrogen with single-walled boron nitride nanotubes. I. The reactive force field ReaxFFHBN development [PDF]
We present a new reactive force field ReaxFFHBN derived to accurately model large molecular and condensed phase systems of H, B, and N atoms. ReaxFFHBN has been tested against quantum calculation data for B–H, B–B, and B–N bond dissociations and for H–B ...

Dicarba-closo-dodecarborane-containing half-sandwich complexes of ruthenium, osmium, rhodium and iridium : biological relevance and synthetic strategies [PDF]
This review describes how the incorporation of dicarba-closo-dodecarboranes into half-sandwich complexes of ruthenium, osmium, rhodium and iridium might lead to the development of a new class of compounds with applications in medicine. Such a combination

Gold(III) Complexation in the Presence of the Macropolyhedral Hydridoborate Cluster [B20H18]2−
Gold(III) complexation with the octadecahydrido-eicosaborate anion [B20H18]2− was studied for the first time. It was found that when gold(III) complexes [Au(L)Cl2]BF4 (L = bipy, phen) reacted with [B20H18]2−, complexes [Au(L)Cl2]2[B20H18] were isolated ...

Magnetic states and optical properties of single-layer carbon-doped hexagonal boron nitride
We show that carbon-doped hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has extraordinary properties with many possible applications. We demonstrate that the substitution-induced impurity states, associated with carbon atoms, and their interactions dictate the ...
