All-graphene edge contacts: Electrical resistance of graphene T-junctions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Using ab-initio methods we investigate the possibility of three-terminal graphene "T-junction" devices and show that these all-graphene edge contacts are energetically feasible when the 1D interface itself is free from foreign atoms.

Boron nitride nanotube films grown from boron ink painting [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Materials Chemistry, 2010
The growth of nanotube films on various substrates and surfaces is vital for applications in nanoscale functional devices. We report a simple and versatile boron (B) ink painting method that enables high-density boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) films with any desired pattern to be grown on, and firmly attached to, different surfaces.
