Synthesis of metalloborophene nanoribbons on Cu(110)
Xiao-Ji Weng, Yi Zhu, Ying Xu +5
Metalloborophene, characterized by the presence of metal-centered boron wheels denoted as M\c{opyright}Bn, has garnered considerable attention in recent years due to its versatile…
Depositing boron on Cu(111): Borophene or boride?
Xiao-Ji Weng, Jie Bai, Jingyu Hou +7
Large-area single-crystal surface structures were successfully prepared on Cu(111) substrate with boron deposition, which is critical for prospective applications. However, the pro…
Helium-bearing superconductor at high pressure
Jingyu Hou, Xiao Dong, Artem R. Oganov +6
Helium (He) is the most inert noble gas at ambient conditions. It adopts a hexagonal close packed structure (P63/mmc) and remains in the insulating phase up to 32 TPa. In contrast,…
Unusual phase transition of layer-stacked borophene under pressure
Xiao-Ji Weng, QuanSheng Wu, Xi Shao +6
The 8-Pmmn borophene, a boron analogue of graphene, hosts tilted and anisotropic massless Dirac fermion quasiparticles owing to the presence of the distorted graphene-like sublatti…
Negative linear compressibility and unusual dynamic behaviors of NaB3
Xin-Ling He, Shu-Ning Pan, Yue Chen +7
First-principles calculations reveal that sodium boride (NaB3) undergoes a phase transition from a tetragonal P4/mbm phase to an orthorhombic Pbam phase at about 16 GPa, accompanie…
Helium Induced Nitrogen Salt at High Pressure
Jingyu Hou, Xiao-Ji Weng, Artem R. Oganov +6
The energy landscape of helium-nitrogen mixtures is explored by ab initio evolutionary searches, which predicted several stable helium-nitrogen compounds in the pressure range from…
Formation of copper boride on Cu(111)
Chengguang Yue, Xiao-Ji Weng, Guoying Gao +9
Boron forms compounds with nearly all metals, with notable exception of copper and other group IB and IIB elements. Here, we report an unexpected discovery of ordered copper boride…
Magnetic borophenes from evolutionary search
Meng-Hong Zhu, Xiao-Ji Weng, Guoying Gao +9
A computation methodology based on ab initio evolutionary algorithms and the spin-polarized density functional theory was developed to predict two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materia…
Two-dimensional boron on Pb (110) surface
Xin-Ling He, Xiao-Ji Weng, Yue Zhang +7
We simulate boron on Pb(110) surface by using ab initio evolutionary methodology. Interestingly, the two-dimensional (2D) Dirac Pmmn boron can be formed because of good lattice mat…
