![]() | How boron nitride forms a regular nanomesh on Rh(111) (4-2-2010) Boron nitride forms nearly perfectly regular films with a thickness of precisely one atom on various metal surfaces. The STM movies under real growth conditions of Guocai Dong, Elodie Fourre demonstrate in detail how the structure grows and how defects are introduced. Their paper will soon to appear in Physical Review Letters. |
![]() | The Dirac point of photonic graphene (3-2-2010) Photonic graphene is a two-dimensional photonic crystal structure that is analogous to graphene. Michiel de Dood and Sander Zandbergen created an isolated conical singularity in the photonic band structure at a microwave frequency of 17.6 GHz. At this frequency, the measured transmission of microwaves through a [...] Read more |
