Less than a nanometer thick, stronger and more versatile than steel

Scientists create stable nanosheets containing boron and hydrogen atoms with potential applications in nanoelectronics and quantum information technology.

Artificial photosynthesis devices that improve themselves with use

In a finding that could help make artificial photosynthesis a practical method for producing hydrogen fuel, researchers have discovered why a water-splitting device made with cheap and abundant materials unexpectedly becomes more efficient during use.

A new, positive approach could be the key to next-generation, transparent electronics

Researchers have introduced ultrathin beta-tellurite to the two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting material family, providing an answer to this decades-long search for a high mobility p-type oxide.

Researchers detected non-negligible interactions between 2D materials and the substrates that physically support them

A systematic study illustrates the crucial role that substrate interactions play in the physics of ultrathin films.
