description | Nowadays, boron nitride has attracted a great deal of attention due to its physical (chemical) properties, facile synthesis, and experimental characterization, indicating great potential for industrial application. Based on this, we develop here a theoretical study on boron nitride nanoflakes built-up from hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets exhibiting hexagonal, rectangular, and triangular shapes. In order to investigate geometry effects such as those due to the presence of armchair and zigzag edges and distinct shapes, we analyzed their properties from both classical and quantum viewpoints. Using classical molecular dynamics calculations, we show that the nanosheets preserve their structural stability at high temperatures, while DFT calculations demonstrate HOMO–LUMO energy gap variation within the theoretical energy gaps of h-BN in bulk and 2D crystals. Besides that, we have also found that boron nitride nanoflakes structures have spatially symmetrical spin densities. |
