“…Therefore, analogous strategies have been developed toward the configuration of BP and conductive carbonaceous materials in most cases, such as BP/acetylene black composites [49] and BP-graphite composites, [33] since BP was first used as an anode aterial for LIBs in 2007. [54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61] In this review, recent advances of RP-and BP-based anode materials for LIBs and/or SIBs are comprehensively summarized. In 2013, simultaneously and independently, Kim et al [51] and Qian et al [28] reported the RP, for the first time, as an anode material for SIBs, which opens up a novel idea to the underlying ability of phosphorus-based materials for SIBs applications.…”

High‐performance and lost‐cost lithium‐ion and sodium‐ion batteries are highly desirable for a wide range of applications including portable electronic devices, transportation (e.g., electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, etc.), and renewable energy storage systems. Great research efforts have been devoted to developing alternative anode materials with superior electrochemical properties since the anode materials used are closely related to the capacity and safety characteristics of the batteries. With the theoretical capacity of 2596 mA h g−1, phosphorus is considered to be the highest capacity anode material for sodium‐ion batteries and one of the most attractive anode materials for lithium‐ion batteries. This work provides a comprehensive study on the most recent advancements in the rational design of phosphorus‐based anode materials for both lithium‐ion and sodium‐ion batteries. The currently available approaches to phosphorus‐based composites along with their merits and challenges are summarized and discussed. Furthermore, some present underpinning issues and future prospects for the further development of advanced phosphorus‐based materials for energy storage/conversion systems are discussed.

“…In the past few years, there are many articles that have reported the practical application of BP in batteries, photodetectors, sensors, field‐effect transistors, and solar cells, and these applications have been summarized in some reviews . Meanwhile, many papers have reported the application of photocatalysis field, while there is no article that has detailedly reported that BP as a photocatalyst is employed in various aspects.…”

Semiconductor photocatalysis, a sustainable and renewable technology, is deemed to be a new path to resolve environmental pollution and energy shortage. The development of effective photocatalysts, especially the metal‐free photocatalysts, is a critical determinant of this technique. The recently emerged 2D material of black phosphorus with distinctive properties of tunable direct bandgap, ultrahigh charge mobility, fortified optical absorption, large specific surface area, and anisotropic structure has captured enormous attention since the first exfoliation of bulk black phosphorus into mono‐ or few layered phosphorene in 2014. In this article, the state‐of‐the‐art preparation methods are first summarized for bulk black phosphorus, phosphorene, and black phosphorus quantum dot and then the fundamental structure and electronic and optical properties are analyzed to evaluate its feasibility as a metal‐free photocatalyst. Various modifications on black phosphorus are also summarized to enhance its photocatalytic performance. Furthermore, the multifarious applications such as solar to energy conversion, organic removal, disinfection, nitrogen fixation, and photodynamic therapy are discussed and some of the future challenges and opportunities for black phosphorus research are proposed. This review reveals that the rising star of black phosphorus will be a multifunctional material in the postgraphene era.

“…However, due to the poor light absorption properties of thin BP, the performance of multilayer BP photodetectors is limited by their low photoresponsivity, and two methods have been tried to solve the low performance; (i) the lateral p–n junction structures which effectively separate electron–hole pairs after photoexcitation, and (ii) the BP heterostructures in which photogenerated charges can be transferred to the BP layers. The BP‐based hybrids and lateral diode structures, such as BP– molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) heterojunctions, BP–Si heterojunctions, and BP homojunctions, have been demonstrated to yield enhanced photoresponses. Compared to BP photodetectors, these junction structures exhibit much higher responsivity (22.3 A W −1 for a vertical junction and 120 A W −1 for a lateral junction have been reported) .…”

A generalized scheme for the fabrication of high performance photodetectors consisting of a p-type channel material and n-type nanoparticles is proposed. The high performance of the proposed hybrid photodetector is achieved through enhanced photoabsorption and the photocurrent gain arising from its effective charge transfer mechanism. In this paper, the realization of this design is presented in a hybrid photodetector consisting of 2D p-type black phosphorus (BP) and n-type molybdenum disulfide nanoparticles (MoS NPs), and it is demonstrated that it exhibits enhanced photoresponsivity and detectivity compared to pristine BP photodetectors. It is found that the performance of hybrid photodetector depends on the density of NPs on BP layer and that the response time can be reduced with increasing density of MoS NPs. The rising and falling times of this photodetector are smaller than those of BP photodetectors without NPs. This proposed scheme is expected to work equally well for a photodetector with an n-type channel material and p-type nanoparticles.
