Magnetic boron clusters induced from p electrons have been confirmed with large spins, e.g., S = 3 in a B34 cluster, which can be assembled to construct all-boron ferromagnetic monolayers. Notably, the ferromagnetic semiconductors of boron monolayers can be designed with thehybridization of a nonmagnetic B36 cluster in experimental synthesis.
