Strain effects on borophene: ideal strength, negative Possion’s ratio and phonon instability

Very recently, two-dimensional (2D) boron sheets (borophene) with rectangular structures were grown successfully on single crystal Ag(111) substrates (Mannix et al 2015 Science http://dx.doi.org/10.1126/science.aad1080 350 http://dx.doi.org/10.1126/science.aad1080 ). The fabricated boroprene is pred...
