Borofen, yeni bir bor bazlı 2 boyutlu malzeme: özellikleri, sentezi ve enerji uygulamaları

Öz

Bor atomlarının düşük kovalent yarıçapı ve sp2 hibridizasyon kapasitesi nedeniyle borda diğer malzemelerde bulunmayan en az 16 toplu bağlı ikosahedron polimorfu mevcuttur. Bunlardan biri, çok çeşitli olası enerji kullanımlarına sahip, heyecan verici yeni bir nanomateryal olan borofendir. 2 boyutlu bir malzeme olan borofenin varlığı hem teorik hem de deneysel çalışmalarla kanıtlanmıştır. Borofenin yüksek teorik spesifik kapasiteleri, manyetik iletkenliği ve iyon taşıma özellikleri, onu enerji uygulamalarında umut verici bir aday haline getirmektedir. Bu çalışmada öncelikle borofenin yapısından, kimyasal ve fiziksel özelliklerinden bahsedilmiştir. Daha sonra, sentez yaklaşımları açısından hem yukarıdan aşağıya hem de aşağıdan yukarıya teknikler (atomik katman biriktirme (ALD), kimyasal buhar biriktirme (CVD), sonokimya ile pul pul dökülme, moleküler ışın epitaksi (MBE) ve çok adımlı termal ayrıştırma gibi) (MTD) ultra yüksek vakumlu borofen biriktirme teknolojileri) tartışıldı. Son olarak yüksek metal iyonlu pillerde katalizör olarak kullanımından, hidrojen depolamasından (HS), Nanoelektronik uygulamalarından hidrojen evrim reaksiyonundan (HER) bahsedildi.

Review of properties, synthesis, and energy applications of borophene, a novel boron-based 2D material

Öz

At least 16 bulk polymorphs of linked icosahedrons exist in boron that are not found in other materials, due to the low covalent radius and sp2 hybridization capacity of boron atoms. One of these is borophene, an exciting new nanomaterial with a wide range of possible energy uses. The existence of borophene, a two-dimensional (2D) material, has been proven by both theoretical and experimental studies. Borophene's high theoretical specific capacities, magnetic conductivity, and ion transport properties make it a promising candidate in energy applications. In this study, firstly, the structure, chemical, and physical properties of borophene were mentioned. Then, in terms of synthesis approaches, both top-down and bottom-up techniques (such as atomic layer deposition (ALD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), exfoliation by sonochemistry, molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), and multi-step thermal decomposition (MTD) for ultrahigh-vacuum borophene deposition technologies) were discussed. Finally, its use as a catalyst in high-metal-ion batteries, hydrogen storage (HS), Nanoelectronics applications hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was mentioned.
