Perspective: Superhard metal borides: A look forward
Previous efforts toward the synthesis of materials with superior mechanical properties (e.g., superhardness, high bulk modulus, and high shear modulus) have focused on binary metal boride structures with short covalent bonds. In this paper, we discuss the methods for enhancing the intrinsic and extr...
