Observation and characterization of the smallest borospherene, B28(-) and B28

Free-standing boron nanocages or borospherenes have been observed recently for B40(-) and B40. There is evidence that a family of borospherenes may exist. However, the smallest borospherene is still not known. Here, we report experimental and computational evidence of a seashell-like borospherene ca...
