Abstract
Black phosphorus (bP) is a crystalline material that can be seen as an ordered stacking of two-dimensional layers, which results in outstanding anisotropic physical properties. The knowledge of its pressure (P)-temperature (T) phase diagram, and in particular, of its melting curve is fundamental for a better understanding of the synthesis and stability conditions of this element. Despite the numerous studies devoted to this subject, significant uncertainties remain regarding the determination of the position and slope of its melting curve. Here we measured the melting curve of bP in an extended P, T region from 0.10(3) to 5.05(40) GPa and from 914(25) to 1788(70) K, using in situ high-pressure and high-temperature synchrotron X-ray diffraction. We employed an original metrology based on the anisotropic thermoelastic properties of bP to accurately determine P and T. We observed a monotonic increase of the melting temperature with pressure and the existence of two distinct linear regimes below and above 1.35(15) GPa, with respective slopes of 348 ± 21 and of 105 ± 12 K·GPa-1. These correspond to the melting of bP toward the low-density liquid and the high-density liquid, respectively. The triple point at which solid bP and the two liquids meet is located at 1.35(15) GPa and 1350(25) K. In addition, we have characterized the solid phases after crystallization of the two liquids and found that, while the high-density liquid transforms back to solid bP, the low-density liquid crystallizes into a more complex, partly crystalline and partly amorphous solid. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the crystalline component could be indexed as a mixture of red and violet P.

Abstract
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and black phosphorus (bP) are crystalline materials that can be seen as ordered stackings of two-dimensional layers, which lead to outstanding anisotropic physical properties. Knowledge of the thermal equations of state of hBN and bP is of great interest in the field of 2D materials for a better understanding of their anisotropic thermo-mechanical properties and exfoliation mechanism towards the preparation of important single-layer materials like hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets and phosphorene. Despite several theoretical and experimental studies, important uncertainties remain in the determination of the thermoelastic parameters of hBN and bP. Here, we report accurate thermal expansion and compressibility measurements along the individual crystallographic axes, using in situ high-temperature and high-pressure high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction. In particular, we have quantitatively determined the subtle variations of the in-plane and volumetric thermal expansion coefficients and compressibility parameters by subjecting these materials to hydrostatic conditions and by collecting a large number of data points in small pressure and temperature increments. In addition, based on the anisotropic behavior of bP, we propose the use of this material as a sensor for the simultaneous determination of pressure and temperature in the range of 0-5 GPa and 298-1700 K, respectively.

Abstract
Atomically-thin van der Waals layered materials, with both high in-plane stiffness and bending flexibility, offer a unique platform for thermomechanical engineering. However, the lack of effective characterization techniques hinders the development of this research topic. Here, we develop a direct experimental method and effective theoretical model to study the mechanical, thermal, and interlayer properties of van der Waals materials. This is accomplished by using a carefully designed WSe2-based heterostructure, where monolayer WSe2 serves as an in-situ strain meter. Combining experimental results and theoretical modelling, we are able to resolve the shear deformation and interlayer shear thermal deformation of each individual layer quantitatively in van der Waals materials. Our approach also provides important interlayer coupling information as well as key thermal parameters. The model can be applied to van der Waals materials with different layer numbers and various boundary conditions for both thermally-induced and mechanically-induced deformations. Van der Waals materials exhibit unique thermomechanical properties, but interlayer deformations are usually challenging to measure. Here, the authors exploit the strain-dependent optical properties of monolayer WSe2 to quantitatively probe the interlayer shear thermal deformations and interlayer coupling in phosphorene and hexagonal boron nitride.

Abstract
New energy storage technologies that can serve as a reliable alternative to lithium-ion batteries are in the spotlight. Particular attention has been recently devoted to magnesium-ion systems due to the considerable abundance of this element and also due to its promising electro-chemical performance. Our results show that monolayer black phosphorene doped by B, Sc, Co, and Cu atoms possesses good structural stability with the minimal cohesive energy of [Formula: see text] eV/atom, the adsorption energy per Mg atom ranging from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] eV, and the charge transfer from double-side adsorbed single Mg-ions to the B-substituted phosphorene increased by [Formula: see text]0.21 [Formula: see text] in comparison with pristine phosphorene. The present work demonstrates a potential path for future improvements of phosphorus-based anode materials for Mg-ion rechargeable batteries which were evaluated using first-principles density-functional theory calculations.

Abstract
The application of phosphorene and graphane in different photoelectric devices and energy reserves has attracted wide attention. Here, we investigated the Raman spectra, phonon dispersion and vibration modes of four phosphorene monolayer polymorphs and four graphane allotropes with the corresponding crystal structures to analyze the structure correlation between them. Based on the "three identical, one divergent" pattern found in the sp3 hybrid atomic orbitals of phosphorene and graphane, four new graphane conformers with different hydrogenation modes named γδ-G, αγ-G, βγ-G and αδ-G are successfully predicted. Among these four new graphane conformers, βγ-G has the lowest binding energy, which is only 0.02 eV per atom higher than β-G, the most stable one among all graphane theoretically predicted. This means that βγ-G may co-exist with β-G during the experimental synthesis of graphane, which can be distinguished from the side views with threefold structures for βγ-G and twofold structures for β-G. All the new graphane conformers are direct-band-gap semiconductors with band gaps more than 3 eV, which indicate their great potential in optoelectronic devices. Furthermore, three of them exhibit in-plane negative Poisson's ratios under tensile deformation.

Black Phosphorus as Multifaceted Advanced Material Nanoplatforms for Potential Biomedical Applications. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 11:E13. [PMID: 33374716 PMCID: PMC7822462 DOI: 10.3390/nano11010013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2020] [Revised: 12/09/2020] [Accepted: 12/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Black phosphorus is one of the emerging members of two-dimensional (2D) materials which has recently entered the biomedical field. Its anisotropic properties and infrared bandgap have enabled researchers to discover its applicability in several fields including optoelectronics, 3D printing, bioimaging, and others. Characterization techniques such as Raman spectroscopy have revealed the structural information of Black phosphorus (BP) along with its fundamental properties, such as the behavior of its photons and electrons. The present review provides an overview of synthetic approaches and properties of BP, in addition to a detailed discussion about various types of surface modifications available for overcoming the stability-related drawbacks and for imparting targeting ability to synthesized nanoplatforms. The review further gives an overview of multiple characterization techniques such as spectroscopic, thermal, optical, and electron microscopic techniques for providing an insight into its fundamental properties. These characterization techniques are not only important for the analysis of the synthesized BP but also play a vital role in assessing the doping as well as the structural integrity of BP-based nanocomposites. The potential role of BP and BP-based nanocomposites for biomedical applications specifically, in the fields of drug delivery, 3D printing, and wound dressing, have been discussed in detail to provide an insight into the multifunctional role of BP-based nanoplatforms for the management of various diseases, including cancer therapy. The review further sheds light on the role of BP-based 2D platforms such as BP nanosheets along with BP-based 0D platforms-i.e., BP quantum dots in the field of therapy and bioimaging of cancer using techniques such as photoacoustic imaging and fluorescence imaging. Although the review inculcates the multimodal therapeutic as well as imaging role of BP, there is still research going on in this field which will help in the development of BP-based theranostic platforms not only for cancer therapy, but various other diseases.
