Abstract
Borophene, as a 2D rising eulogizing star, is garnering increasing attention and recognition due to its venerated properties including anisotropic plasmonics, exemplary in-plane elasticity, superconductivity, massless Dirac fermions, high electron mobility, exceptional flexibility, exquisite tunability, and metallic properties across the majority of its structural models. These characteristics make borophene a promising material with diverse implementations like quantum electronics, high-speed low-dissipation devices, gas sensors, and energy storage. Following the landmark synthesis of borophene in 2015, a multitude of scientific endeavors have explored diverse synthesis approaches for producing borophene on a range of substrates. Within, this comprehensive review, we endeavor to present a succinct yet thorough examination of the myriad synthesis approaches employed for borophene fabrication on various substrates. In tandem, we meticulously delineate the merits and demerits inherent to each of these elucidated synthesis techniques. Furthermore, the review encompasses a summary of applications of borophene. Simultaneously, we proffer suggestions, address existing challenges, and discern novel prospects, thus extending an invitation for future exploration in this promising domain of scientific inquiry.
期刊介绍：
The objective of the Journal of Nanoparticle Research is to disseminate knowledge of the physical, chemical and biological phenomena and processes in structures that have at least one lengthscale ranging from molecular to approximately 100 nm (or submicron in some situations), and exhibit improved and novel properties that are a direct result of their small size.
Nanoparticle research is a key component of nanoscience, nanoengineering and nanotechnology.
The focus of the Journal is on the specific concepts, properties, phenomena, and processes related to particles, tubes, layers, macromolecules, clusters and other finite structures of the nanoscale size range. Synthesis, assembly, transport, reactivity, and stability of such structures are considered. Development of in-situ and ex-situ instrumentation for characterization of nanoparticles and their interfaces should be based on new principles for probing properties and phenomena not well understood at the nanometer scale. Modeling and simulation may include atom-based quantum mechanics; molecular dynamics; single-particle, multi-body and continuum based models; fractals; other methods suitable for modeling particle synthesis, assembling and interaction processes. Realization and application of systems, structures and devices with novel functions obtained via precursor nanoparticles is emphasized. Approaches may include gas-, liquid-, solid-, and vacuum-based processes, size reduction, chemical- and bio-self assembly. Contributions include utilization of nanoparticle systems for enhancing a phenomenon or process and particle assembling into hierarchical structures, as well as formulation and the administration of drugs. Synergistic approaches originating from different disciplines and technologies, and interaction between the research providers and users in this field, are encouraged.
