Thin films of boron nitride (BN), particularly the sp<sup>2</sup>-hybridized polytypes hexagonal BN (h-BN) and rhombohedral BN (r-BN) are interesting for several electronic applications given band gaps in the UV. They are typically deposited close to thermal equilibrium by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at temperatures and pressures in the regions 1400-1800 K and 1000-10000 Pa, respectively. In this letter, we use van der Waals corrected density functional theory and thermodynamic stability calculations to determine the stability of r-BN and compare it to that of h-BN as well as to cubic BN and wurtzitic BN. We find that r-BN is the stable sp<sup>2</sup>-hybridized phase at CVD conditions, while h-BN is metastable. Thus, our calculations suggest that thin films of h-BN must be deposited far from thermal equilibrium.

ABSTRACTThe interaction of a magnetic (Fe) impurity with the surface of a non-magnetic (Au) semi-infinite host is investigated in terms of fully relativistic spin-polarized first principles calculations. It is shown that the surface induces a magnetic anisotropy on the impurity which is considerably larger than in the bulk. It is also found that the anisotropy constant K(d) is an oscillating function of the distance d between the impurity and the surface with an amplitude which falls as 1/d2 and a period which is determined by the shape of the Fermi Surface of the bulk Au host. However, the question still remains open whether the magnitude of the anisotropy energy is sufficiently large to explain the thickness dependence of the Kondo amplitude B in thin films of dilute FecAu1-c alloys.
