Book Description
A hexagonal boron nitride nanosheet (BNNS) is an atomic-thick 2D material that exhibits many interesting properties such as high chemical stability and excellent mechanical and thermal properties. In Chapter One, the authors introduce two methods for the exfoliation of BNNS from hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Then, methodologies for the surface functionalisation and nanocomposite construction are demonstrated by two BNNS based nanocomposites. The catalytic performance of the BNNS based nanocomposites is also evaluated and discussed in detail. Chapter two evaluates the formation of rolled hexagonal boron nitride nano-sheets (h-BN nanoscrolls) on their unique morphology, magnetic properties and applications. Due to the high chemical and thermal stabilities, as well as atomically smooth surfaces with free of dangling bonds, hBN has been used as barriers, passivation and support layers in 2D electronic devices, to maximise the electrical and optical characterisation of 2D materials. However, there still remains a challenge in obtaining large-area and high-quality hBN film for real 2D electronic devices. Chapter Three focuses on chemical vapor deposition (CVD), a promising method to overcome these limitations. Chapter Four discusses how a boron doped armchair graphene ribbon has been shown by cyclic voltammetry to be a potential catalyst to replace platinum, however the reaction catalysed was not identified. The authors use density functional calculations to show the reaction catalysed is likely dissociation of HO2. Chapter Five reveals a novel and industrially feasible route to incorporate boron nitride nanoparticles (BNNPs) in radiation-shielding aerospace structural materials. Chapter Six deals with the preparation and characterisation of boron nitride nanotube (BNNT)-reinforced biopolyester matrices. The morphology, hydrophilicity, biodegradability, cytotoxicity, thermal, mechanical, tribological and antibacterial properties of the resulting nanocomposites are discussed in detail. Chapter Seven presents theoretical estimations regarding the compressive buckling response of single walled boron nitride nanotubes (SWBNNTs), which have a similar crystal structure as single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Moreover, SWBNNTs have excellent mechanical, insulating and dielectric properties. Finally, Chapter Eight shows how the different exchange mechanisms can be distinguished and measured by studying solid films where part of the 3He is replaced by immobile Ne atoms. The authors also show how the formation energy of vacancies and vacancy tunneling frequency can be obtained from NMR studies at high temperature.

Book Description
This book presents the latest studies in the synthesis and application of boron nitride (BN) composites as multifunctional materials for advanced technologies. BN, the second hardest material after diamond, has different allotropic forms similar to carbon and can exist as nanosheets, nanotubes, nanoshells, and 3D permeable nanostructure. The different chapters in this book highlight the BN nanostructures and its composite materials synthesized with conducting polymer, epoxy, nylon, graphene, and natural fiber composite, to produce materials with enhanced properties such as excellent mechanical wear resistance, superior thermal conductivity, and unique electronic properties. This book caters to researchers and academics interested in BN-based composite and its potential applications in nanoscale electrical and thermal devices and metal-free electro- and photo-catalysts.

Book Description
Thin films of Boron Nitride (BN) and Boron Carbide (BC) possess properties that make them attractive for various applications. Epitaxially grown BN exhibits potential for optoelectronic devices, as piezoelectric materials, and graphene technology. Epitaxial BC is a semiconductor that could allow bandgap tuning and has potential applications in thermoelectric and optoelectronic devices. Both BN and BC material systems, generally deposited using chemical vapour deposition (CVD), are limited by the lack of control in depositing epitaxial films. In my thesis work, I have studied the evolution of various crystal phases of BN and BC and the factors that affect them during their CVD processes. I deposited and compared the growth of BN on Al2O3 (0001), (11 2 over bar 0), (1 1 over bar 02) and (10 1 over bar 0) substrates and used two organoboranes as boron precursors. Only Al2O3(11 2 over bar 0) and Al2O3 (0001) rendered crystalline films while the BN growth on the remaining substrates was X-ray amorphous. Furthermore, the less investigated Al2O3(11 2 over bar 0) had better crystalline quality versus the commonly used Al2O3 (0001). To further understand this, I studied crystalline BN thin films on an atomic scale and with a time evolution approach, uncovering the influence of carbon on hexagonal BN (h-BN). I showed that h-BN nucleates on both substrates but then either polytype transforms to rhombohedral-BN (r-BN) in stages, turns to less ordered turbostratic-BN or is terminated. An increase in local carbon content is the cause of these changes in epitaxial BN films during CVD. From the time evolution, we studied the effect of Al2O3 modification on h-BN nucleation during CVD. The interaction between boron and carbon during BN growth motivated studies also on the BxC materials. BxC was deposited using CVD at different temperatures on 4H-SiC(0001) (Si-face) and 4H-SiC(000 1 over bar) (C-face) substrates. Epitaxial rhombohedral-B4C (r-B4C) grew at 1300 °C on the C-face while the films deposited on the Si-face were polycrystalline. Comparing the initial nucleation layers on both 4H-SiC substrates on an atomic scale we showed that no interface phenomena are affecting epitaxial r-B4C growth conditions. We suggest that the difference in surface energy on the two substrate surfaces is the most plausible reason for the differences in epitaxial r-B4C growth conditions. In this thesis work, I identify the challenges and propose alternative routes to synthesise epitaxial BN and B4C materials using CVD. This fundamental materials science work enhances the understanding of growing these material systems epitaxially and in doing so furthers their development.

Book Description
Boron nitride was first produced in the 18th century and, by virtue of its extraordinary mechanical strength, has found extensive application in industrial processes since the 1940s. However, the more recent discovery that boron nitride allotropes are as structurally diverse as those of carbon (e.g. fullerenes, graphene, carbon nanotubes) has placed this material, and particularly its low-dimensional allotropes, back at the forefront of modern material science. This book provides a comprehensive history of this rapid rise in the status of boron nitride and boron nitride nanomaterials, spanning the earliest examples of three-dimensional boron nitride allotropes, through to contemporary structures such as monolayer hexagonal boron nitride, boron nitride nanomeshes, boron nitride nanotubes and the incorporation of boron nitride into cutting-edge van der Waals heterostructures. It specifically focuses on the properties, applications and synthesis techniques for each of these allotropes and examines how the evolution in boron nitride production methods is linked to that in our understanding of how low-dimensional nanomaterials self-assemble, or ‘grow’, during synthesis. The book demonstrates the key synergy between growth mechanisms and the development of new, advanced nanostructured materials.
