Abstract

Ion Exchange A layered structure of HCa0.5B6 with alternating Ca-rich and Ca-deficient planes formed via ion exchange is illustrated. The three-center two-electron B–H–B bonds at the CaB6 surface are highlighted, demonstrating a novel surface engineering strategy for functional boride materials. Mor information can be found in the Research Article by Takahiro Kondo (10.1002/sstr.202500389).
