“…The failure mechanism of β-CP is almost identical, at the fracture strain of =0.52. These failure strains of CP allotropes are fairly close to that of phosphorene =0.5 [43]. The fracture stresses along the AC direction are =5.49GPa for α-CP and =7.15GPa for β-CP, respectively, which are also comparable with that of phosphorene =8.1GPa [50].…”

Using density functional tight-binding theory, we investigated the elastic properties and deformation and failure behaviors of pristine and defective carbon-phosphide (CP) monolayers subjected to uniform uniaxial tensile strain along arm-chair (AC) and zig-zag (ZZ) directions. Two variants of CP (α-CP and β-CP) were studied and two types of carbon and phosphorous vacancies (single and double) were considered. It was found that carbon monovacancies have the lowest formation energy, while phosphorous divacancies have the highest one in both CP allotropes. A strong mechanical anisotropy for CP was found with the Young's modulus and the failure stress along ZZ direction being an order of magnitude larger than those along AC direction. In both allotropes, the Young's modulus, failure stress and strain are considerably affected by vacancies, especially along AC direction. Fracture of pristine CP monolayer occurred via the rupture of phosphorous-phosphorous bonds when CP monolayer is stretched along AC direction, while via the rupture of carbon-phosphorous bonds when stretched along ZZ direction. Defective α-CP and β-CP monolayers both undergo a brittle-like failure initiated around the hosted vacancies at a lower critical strain. The failure strain and stress along the AC direction are affected only by phosphorous vacancies, while along the ZZ direction, they are almost equally affected by both phosphorous and carbon vacancies. These understandings may provide useful guidelines for potential applications of CP monolayers in nanoelectromechanical systems.

“…The structural stability is lost due to bond fragmentation. Since CP bonds are stronger than PP bonds, the fracture strains along the ZZ direction: =0.32 (α-CP) and =0.34 (β-CP) exceed that of pristine phosphorene =0.24 [43,50]. The fracture stresses along the ZZ direction:…”

“…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.

“…The three covalent bonds have different bond angles and bond lengths. Two of them are in plane (α = 96.34°, d 1 = 2.224 Å) and the other one is out of plane (β = 102.09°, d 2 = 2.244 Å) (α, β: bond angles, d 1 , d 2 : bond lengths) . Owing to out‐of‐place distortion, BP shows two inequivalent in‐plane directions; the ridge structure along the zigzag direction ( y ‐axis) and puckered structure along the armchair direction ( x ‐axis) thereby producing strong anisotropy of in‐plane properties …”

The rapid development of the semiconductor industry calls for the exploration of novel semiconductors to cater to modern technical and commercial needs. Recently, black phosphorus (BP) has emerged as a new class of 2D semiconducting material and has attracted intensive research attention. The high carrier mobility and tunable direct bandgap of BP deliver great promise in photonic and optoelectronic device applications. Furthermore, the unique intrinsic anisotropy arising from the puckered structure can be exploited in the design of new devices. This review briefly introduces the history of BP and puts emphasis on recent advances pertaining to its optical properties and applications in the photonic and optoelectronic fields. From the perspective of mass production and practical use of BP, some of the research challenges and opportunities are discussed.
