“…Its structural and other properties have previously been discussed. 11,17 Due to the sp 3 hybridization, phosphorene does not form atomically flat sheets like graphene. 15 Instead, they form a puckered honeycomb-structured layers 18 (Fig.…”

“…The key characteristics that make it so promising are high carrier mobility, strong in-plane anisotropy, particularly the anisotropy of electric conductance, 10 and highly tunable band gap, which changes with doping, functionalization, and the number of layers from~1.5 eV for a monolayer to 0.3 eV for bulk BP. 11 The on/off ratio and the carrier mobility are also layer-dependent. 12 Furthermore, compatibility of phosphorene with other 2D materials in socalled van der Waals heterostructures can offer solutions for important issues, such as surface degradation, doping, or control of surface/interface electronic structure, and can also enable novel functionalities and devices with unique or unprecedented performance.…”

“…DFT calculations for phosphorene/graphene composite indicate a significant increase in binding energy to 2.6 eV without affecting the high mobility of Li within the layers. 11 Electrochemical performance of phosphorene is predicted to be further improved in nanoribbons especially, in ZZ nanoribbons, where a moderate working voltage (0.504-0.021 V), high capacity (541 mA h g −1 ), and fast charge/discharge rate is calculated. 114 Compared to phosphorene (1.98 eV), there is a moderate enhancement of the Li binding energy for AM (2.18-2.50 eV) and ZZ (2.07-2.52 eV) phosphorene nanoribbons (PNRs) due to the presence of unique edge states.…”

“…120 Furthermore, high performance NaIB anode in the form of BP/Ketjenblack-multiwalled carbon nanotubes composite has also been recently obtained using ball milling. 121 While most of the reports on the use of phosphorene for electrochemical energy storage applications are theoretical DFT-based calculations, 11,111,112,122 some first experimental studies have also been reported, 123,124 including the work of Cui et al 97 , on the mechanism of sodiation in BP and hybrid material of few-layer phosphorene sandwiched between graphene (P/G) investigated using in-situ TEM and ex-situ XRD methods. 123 This study showed a two-step mechanism of intercalation of sodium along the x-axis followed by alloying and formation of Na 3 P. The strong anisotropic volume expansion (estimated at 0, 92, and~160%, along the x, y, and z-axis, respectively) observed in few-layer phosphorene samples was found to be suppressed in P/G nanocoposite electrodes.…”

Since its first fabrication by exfoliation in 2014, phosphorene has been the focus of rapidly expanding research activities. The number of phosphorene publications has been increasing at a rate exceeding that of other two-dimensional materials. This tremendous level of excitement arises from the unique properties of phosphorene, including its puckered layer structure. With its widely tunable band gap, strong in-plane anisotropy, and high carrier mobility, phosphorene is at the center of numerous fundamental studies and applications spanning from electronic, optoelectronic, and spintronic devices to sensors, actuators, and thermoelectrics to energy conversion, and storage devices. Here, we review the most significant recent studies in the field of phosphorene research and technology. Our focus is on the synthesis and layer number determination, anisotropic properties, tuning of the band gap and related properties, strain engineering, and applications in electronics, thermoelectrics, and energy storage. The current needs and likely future research directions for phosphorene are also discussed. , there has been a quest for new two-dimensional (2D) materials aimed at fully exploring new fundamental phenomena stemming from quantum confinement and size effects. This quest has spurred new areas of research with rapid growth from both theoretical and experimental fronts aimed at technological advancements. Among recently discovered 2D materials, phosphorene is one of the most intriguing due to its exotic properties and numerous foreseeable applications.2 This review discusses recent advances in phosphorene research with special emphasis on: (i) fabrication and techniques for rapid identification of the number of layers; (ii) anisotropic behavior; (iii) band gap and property tuning; (iv) strain engineering and mechanical properties; (v) devices and applications; and (vi) future directions.2D materials composed of a single-atom-thick or a singlepolyhedral-thick layer can be grouped into diverse categories.

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.
