What is the best substrate for exfoliating few layers of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) using traditional scotch tape method?

Unlike graphene, it is usually very difficult to exfoliate few layers (~10 nm thick) of hBN on SiO2 substrate due to lip-lip interaction at the edges. Au substrates have been proven very useful...

Why resistive switching memory devices(ReRAM) have not become popular despite showing great promises over conventional RAMs

I am interested to know why ReRAM is not yet used. It's been in the academia for almost 10 years. Still very few people work on that.
