Spontaneous dynamical disordering of borophenes in MgB2 and related metal borides
Layered boron compounds attract enormous interest in applications. This work reports first-principles calculations coupled with global optimization to show that the outer boron surface in MgB2 nanosheets undergo disordering and clustering, which is experimentally confirmed in synthesized MgB2 nanosh...
