Charge-polarized interfacial superlattices in marginally twisted hexagonal boron nitride
Here, moiré superlattices generated by twisted insulating crystals of hexagonal boron nitride are shown to have a ferroelectric-like character, attributed to strain-induced polarized dipoles formed by pairs of interfacial boron and nitrogen atoms that ...

Boron and Nitrogen Isotope Effects on Hexagonal Boron Nitride Properties
AbstractThe unique physical, mechanical, chemical, optical, and electronic properties of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) make it a promising 2D material for electronic, optoelectronic, nanophotonic, and quantum devices. Here, the changes in hBN's properties induced by isotopic purification in both boron and nitrogen are reported.

Unidirectional motion of C60-based nanovehicles using hybrid substrates with temperature gradient
With the synthesis of nanocar structures the idea of transporting energy and payloads on the surface became closer to reality. To eliminate the concern of diffusive surface motion of nanocars, in this study, we evaluate the motion of C60 and C60-based ...
