摘要
We describe the synthesis of very thin sheets (between a few and ten atomic layers) of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), prepared either on a SiO2 substrate or freely suspended. Optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy have been used to characterize the morphology of the samples and to distinguish between regions of different thicknesses. Comparison is made to previous studies on single- and few-layer graphene. This synthesis opens the door to experimentally accessing the two-dimensional phase of boron nitride.
