Possible Interaction: Boron and Nitrogen

“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 create bilayer-thick ferroelectric domains.”

“There is a charge transfer from boron to nitrogen atoms which increases with the doping level.”

“Specifically, we observed the emergence of different magnetic properties when boron and nitrogen were used as dopant species.”

“The structral constraint around the boron and nitrogen atoms alters the π-conjugation mode and thus the photophysical and electrochemical properties.”

“Codoping of sulfur or boron with nitrogen at a rational level will synergistically promote the catalysis as a result of the formation of more catalytic centers by improved charge/spin redistribution of the carbon framework.”

“Moreover, the significance of charge separation by inducing boron and nitrogen atoms is emphasized and special attention is paid to the z-component of the dipole moment of sumanene derivatives.”

“The BCN graphene shows significantly enhanced specific capacitance due to boron and nitrogen co-doping, which permits higher overall doping levels.”

“Science, this issue p. 513; see also p. 473 Boron and nitrogen centers cooperatively catalyze a reaction that has previously relied on transition metal catalysts. [”

“Highly uniform, ultrathin, layer-by-layer heteroatom (N, B) co-doped graphene films are fabricated for high-performance on-chip planar micro-supercapacitors with an ultrahigh volumetric capacitance of ∼488 F cm(-3) and excellent rate capability due to the synergistic effect of nitrogen and boron co-doping.”

“The reduction of the resonance frequency caused by doping with boron only is larger than the reduction caused by doping with both boron and nitrogen.”
