A facile strategy to prepare nitrogen and boron doped monolayer graphene from solid precursors.

In this NJC paper, Honglie Shen et al (Nanjing University of Aeronautics & Astronautics, China) report a facile strategy to prepare a nitrogen and boron doped monolayer of graphene from urea and boric acid as solid precursors.

This approach is shown to be efficient, producing graphene with excellent optical and electrical performances at relatively low cost.
