We investigate, through first-principles calculations, the stability and electronic structure of
self-interstitials and vacancies in both hexagonal (graphite-like) and cubic boron nitride. We …

We investigate, using first-principles calculations, the electronic structure of substitutional
and vacancy defects in a boron nitride monolayer. We found that the incorporation of a …

We have investigated, using first-principles calculations, the energetic stability and structural
properties of antisites, vacancies and substitutional carbon defects in a boron nitride …

Cubic boron nitride (c-BN) thin films are of significant interest because of their diamond like
structure and properties. c-BN shows high thermal conductivity, chemical inertness against …

We present a photoemission and x-ray-absorption study on boron carbide which identifies
the spectroscopic features of this material, discussing them in connection with current …
