Ken Wade recalls his own undistinguished part in the space race, and notes how carboranes revitalized boron hydride chemistry and modified our ideas of chemical bonding. In the 1950s, during the ...

THE bond order of boron–nitrogen compounds and the aromatic character of borazoles have been subjects of interest for many years (see, for example, ref. 1). It is shown here that bond energy ...

Report by BC Professor of Physics David Broido and international colleagues confirm high thermal conductivity predicted for isotopically enriched cubic boron nitride Research by Professor of Physics ...

Crystalline boron imidazolate frameworks (BIFs) are a lightweight zeolite-like metal-organic framework (MOF) developed to ...

Because boron has one less electron than is required to form the bonds with the surrounding silicon atoms, an electron vacancy or “hole” is created. The n-type silicon is made by including atoms that ...

Boron has only three electrons in its outer shell and can bond with only three of the four surrounding silicon atoms. This leaves one silicon atom with a vacant location in its outer shell ...

These are referred to donor buttresses, and are typically formed when large boron-alkyl molecules complex with a metal center. [5] Bonding motifs for metal base-stabilized boron Z-ligands. [5] A ...
