Mechanical properties of atomically thin boron nitride and the role of interlayer interactions
Atomically thin boron nitride remains undercharacterized in terms of their mechanical properties. Here authors test high-quality mono- and few-layer BN and show it to be one of the strongest electrically insulating materials and dramatically better in interlayer integrity than graphene under indenta...
