However, most of 2D magnetic materials are derived from the van der Waals (vdW) layered bulks, which greatly limits the synthesis of 2D magnetic materials. Here, 2D M₃B₄ (M = Cr, Mn, and Fe; B = Boron), derived from hexagonal and orthorhombic M₃AlB₄ phases by selectively etching Al layers, was studied for its structural stability, electronic structure, and magnetic properties. By utilizing <i>ab initio</i> calculations and Monte Carlo simulations, we found that the orthorhombic Cr₃B₄ shows ferromagnetic (FM) metal and possesses an in-plane magnetic easy axis, while the remaining hexagonal and orthorhombic M₃B₄ structures exhibit antiferromagnetic (AFM) metals with a magnetic easy axis which is perpendicular to the two-dimensional plane. The critical temperatures of these 2D M₃B₄ structures are found to be above the 130 K. Notably, the ort-Mn₃B₄ possesses highest <i>T</i> _<i>C</i> (~600 K) and strongest MAE (~220 µeV/atom) among these borides-based 2D magnetic materials. Our findings reveal that the 2D M₃B₄ compounds exhibit much better resistance to deformation compared to M₂B₂ MBenes and other 2D magnetic materials. The combination of high critical temperature, robust MAE, and excellent mechanical properties makes 2D Mn₃B₄ monolayer exhibits a favorable potential for spintronic applications.

To obtain such information, hardware modifications, such as introducing additional channels with different physical/chemical properties, are usually needed. In this study, we present a new approach to augmenting the sensing signals of an olfactory sensor by modulating the flow rate of the carrier gas. The headspace vapour of complex odours is measured using a sensing system of nanomechanical sensor (Membrane-type Surface stress Sensor, MSS). The resulting data set is quantitatively evaluated using the Davies-Bouldin index (DBI) of principal component analysis (PCA). The increasing number of sensing signals obtained at different gas flow rates leads to a decrease in the DBI, achieving better cluster separation between different odours. Such gas flow effects can be attributed to several factors, including the sample evaporation and the equilibrium of the gas-liquid and gas-solid interfaces. Proton-transfer-reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometry (PTR-TOF-MS) experiments reveal that the compositions of odour samples vary with the different gas flow rates.
