Selenium-induced curvature control enables polymorphism in borabuckybowls
Atsuhiro Ikeno, Masahiro Hayakawa, Nonoka Masunaga, Akira Ueda, Takuji HatakeyamaSelenium-induced shape adaptability allows a borabuckybowl to access multiple crystal polymorphs through curvature control. This strategy establishes a new design principle for engineering solid-state properties of curved π-systems.
