On-surface synthesis of a 2D boroxine framework: a route to a novel 2D material?†
Abstract
The synthesis and preliminary characterization of a boron-based 2D framework are presented. The peculiar electronic and morphological properties of this compound, together with its facile formation process, enable it to be used as a novel smart material for the design of electronic devices.
