“…In recent years, a number of black–red phosphorus heterostructure have been tested as photocatalysts and the performance of such a heterojunction depends critically on the choice of semiconductor materials. Examples of heterostructure photocatalysts made from black–red phosphorus include BP/BiVO 4 (Zhu, Cai, et al, 2017a; Zhu, Osakada, et al, 2017b; Zhu, Zhang, et al, 2017c), BP/TiO 2 (Luo et al, 2018), BP/MoS 2 (Yuan, Li, et al, 2019b; Yuan, Wang, et al, 2019a), BP/Bi 2 WO 6 (Hu & Guo, 2021), BP/Au‐CdS (Cai et al, 2018), BP/Graphene Oxide (Ge et al, 2020), RP/ZnO (Chen et al, 2018), RP/NiSe 2 (Jia et al, 2020), RP/Carbon Nitride (Wang, He, et al, 2020b; Wang, Qin, et al, 2020a), BP‐1D/Red Phosphorus 2D (Zhao, Fu, et al, 2021b; Zhao, Hu, et al, 2021a), etc. Various strategies including passivation (Kumar, 2020), covalent surface modification (Thurakkal & Zhang, 2021), encapsulating with protective layers (Clark et al, 2018), etc.…”

Phosphorene, also referred to as phosphorus‐based elemental material (black and red), display unusual electronic‐structure characteristics, which can significantly enrich the fields of energy application and possesses huge potential in photocatalysis owing to its bandgap tunability, high optical absorption, large surface area, high charge carrier mobilities, and efficient solar to chemical energy conversion. However, due to chemical instability and the poor visible‐light utilization efficiency, individual phosphorus materials cannot promote charge transfer and separation. For designing active photocatalysts, phosphorus‐based hybrid materials with effective charge carriers separation at the heterojunction interface has played significant role. In this respect, considerable attempts have been made to fabricate black–red phosphorus heterostructure for photocatalytic applications and solar fuel generation, such as photocatalytic and electrocatalysis water splitting, CO2 reduction, carbohydrates synthesis, etc. This review article highlights the strategies for the synthesis of black–red phosphorus heterostructure materials for catalysis with a special focus on their potential for solar fuel generation applications. Recently developed black–red phosphorus heterostructure will be discussed, which can improve the most challenging drawback of phosphorus materials. Finally, the major challenges along with future trends of black–red phosphorus heterostructure in catalytic applications are outlined.

“…On the other hand, in situ heterojunction fabricated from a single element would result in strong interfacial forces and tight contact, which favors the separation of e − ‐h + pairs and their subsequent transportation [21,24–26] . In situ growth of phosphorus element heterostructure with 1D rod black phosphorus (BP) and 2D flake red phosphorus (RP) may have the potential excellent interfacial contact [27–29] . Therefore, we expect to design a novel 2D/1D/‐2D RP/BP‐Bi 2 WO 6 composites with in situ junction and Z‐scheme system for enhanced photocatalytic H 2 and H 2 O 2 production [20,21] …”

Exploring multifunctional photocatalysts with rational design and construction of unique transport channels is of great significance for the value‐added chemicals production and environmental remediation. In this work, a novel 2D/1D/‐2D RP/BP‐MBWO dual heterostructure photocatalyst has been successfully synthesized by loading the in‐situ grown 2D/1D RP/BP heterostructure on the 2D Bi2WO6 nanosheets. through simple ultrasonic agitation.Benefiting from this favourable interfacial and structural characteristics, the fabricated BP/RP‐MBWO photocatalyst shows a sharply improved photocatalytic H2 and H2O2 evolution performance. Excitingly, the optimal of H2O2 production rate of the BP/RP‐Bi2WO6 composites is as high as 622.5 μmol g−1 h−1 under visible light irradiation, which is approximately 15 times as that of pure MBWO. The hydrogen production performance of the complexes was significantly improved compared to the pure MBWO samples. When the BP/RP loading was 20 %, the prepared nanocomposites showed the highest photocatalytic hydrogen evolution efficiency with the hydrogen production rate of about 0.77 μmol ⋅ g−1 ⋅ h−1. This work is expected to offer a new inspiration for the rational design and construction of effcient photocatalyst systems toward solar energy capture and conversion.

Photocatalysis has garnered significant attention as a sustainable approach for energy conversion and environmental management. 2D black phosphorus (BP) has emerged as a highly promising semiconductor photocatalyst owing to its distinctive properties. However, inherent issues such as rapid recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes severely impede the photocatalytic efficacy of single BP. The construction/stacking mode of BP with other nanomaterials decreases the recombination rate of carriers and extend its functionalities. Herein, from the perspective of atomic interface and electronic interface, the enhancement mechanism of photocatalytic performance by heterogeneous interface engineering is discussed. Based on the intrinsic properties of BP and corresponding photocatalytic principles, the effects of diverse interface characteristics (point, linear, and planar interface) and charge transfer mechanisms (type I, type II, Z‐scheme, and S‐scheme heterojunctions) on photocatalysis are summarized systematically. The modulation of heterogeneous interfaces and rational regulation of charge transfer mechanisms can enhance charge migration between interfaces and even maximize redox capability. Furthermore, research progress of heterogeneous interface engineering based on BP is summarized and their prospects are looked ahead. It is anticipated that a novel concept would be presented for constructing superior BP‐based photocatalysts and designing other 2D photocatalytic materials.
