Transfer over, graphene. There is a new, improved two-dimensional materials within the lab. Borophene, the atomically skinny model of boron first synthesized in 2015, is extra conductive, thinner, lighter, stronger and extra versatile than graphene, the 2D model of carbon. Now, researchers have made the fabric probably extra helpful by imparting chirality — or handedness — on it, which may make for superior sensors and implantable medical units.
