Researchers at the Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering at the Technion succeeded in changing the electrical properties of a material by removing an oxygen atom from the original structure. Possible applications: electronic miniaturization and detection of radiation emissions
The research deals with a two-dimensional material, a single atom thick layer of boron and nitrogen atoms arranged in a cyclic hexagonal structure. During the experiment the researchers were able to break the symmetry of this crystal by artificially assembling two such layers
