A team of semiconductor researchers based in France has used a boron nitride separation layer to grow indium gallium nitride (InGaN) solar cells that were then lifted off their original sapphire ...
A Rice team led by professors Matteo Pasquali and Angel Martí has simplified handling of the highly valuable nanotubes to make them more suitable for large-scale applications, including aerospace, ...
Two-dimensional boron nitride (BN) nanosheets, also called ‘white graphene’ or ‘non-carbon graphene’, consist of a few layers of alternating boron and nitrogen atoms in a hexagonal arrangement. Their ...
Hot pressing is a fabrication technique that applies heat and pressure simultaneously to densify ceramic materials. BN hot pressing processing begins with the preparation of highly pure BN powder.
Scientists create the first boron nitride nanotube fibers using the custom wet-spinning process they developed to make carbon nanotube fibers. Boron nitride nanotubes used to be hard to process, ...
Boron nitride sensors enable quantum measurements under crushing pressure, redefining high-pressure physics. The quantum ...
A completely unique material, Boron Nitride solves problems that could not possibly be tackled with other compositions such as Al 2 O 3 or SiC. Boron Nitride fights off temperatures over 2,000°C and, ...
It’s only a matter of time before a movie villain pulling off the crime of the century needs a cutting tool that is harder than anything else on Earth. Perhaps it’s a burglary that involves cutting ...
