Mechanical Properties of Atomically Thin Boron Nitride and the Role of Interlayer Interactions
Aleksey Falin, Qiran Cai, Elton J. G. Santos +11
Atomically thin boron nitride (BN) nanosheets are important two-dimensional nanomaterials with many unique properties distinct from those of graphene, but the investigation of thei…
Raman Signature and Phonon Dispersion of Atomically Thin Boron Nitride
Qiran Cai, Declan Scullion, Aleksey Falin +5
Raman spectroscopy has become an essential technique to characterize and investigate graphene and many other two-dimensional materials. However, there still lacks consensus on the…
Atomically Thin Boron Nitride as an Ideal Spacer for Metal-Enhanced Fluorescence
Wei Gan, Christos Tserkezis, Qiran Cai +11
The metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF) considerably enhances the luminescence for various applications, but its performance largely depends on the dielectric spacer between the fluo…
Two-dimensional van der Waals Heterostructures for Synergistically Improved Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
Qiran Cai, Wei Gan, Alexey Falin +8
Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a precise and non-invasive analytical technique that is widely used in chemical analysis, environmental protection, food processing, p…
High thermal conductivity of high-quality monolayer boron nitride and its thermal expansion
Qiran Cai, Declan Scullion, Wei Gan +7
Heat management becomes more and more critical, especially in miniaturized modern devices, so the exploration of highly thermally conductive materials with electrical insulation an…
Hunting micrometer-sized graphene flakes on gold substrate
Joel M. Katzen, Matěj Velický, Yuefeng Huang +7
Gold is widely used as the substrate material in many graphene devices, due to its superior optoelectronic properties and chemical stability. However, there has been little experim…
