Images of Two-dimensional Borophene (IMAGE) Rice University Caption Scientists at Rice and Northwestern universities have developed a technique to get images of two-dimensional borophene and match them with models. Polymorphic borophene shows promise for electronic, thermal, optical and other applications. The researchers also created a phase diagram, at right, with details about borophene polymorphs observed to date. Credit Xiaolong Liu/Northwestern University Usage Restrictions Credit must be used.
