Boron Nitride Nanomesh
Boron nitride is an extremely useful material for applications in material sciences and appears in an manifold of crystalline modifications, with hexagonal and cubic boron nitride as most prominent substances. BN-monolayers, also known as nanomesh, are another form of boron nitride. Now a new mehtod for formation of such monolayers was developed. As starting material no longer expensive borazine is used but trimehtylborate, a low-cost standard chemical. In a three-step boration-oxidation- nitration process finally BN-monolayers of very high quality are formed. Besides trimethylborate the additionally needed chemicals are standard chemicals as well.
