Abstract
Blue phosphorene is an interesting two-dimensional (2D) material, which has attracted the attention of researchers, due to its affluent physical and chemical properties. In recent years, it was discovered that the intercalation of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals in 2D materials may lead to conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconductivity. In this work, the electronic structure, phonon dispersion, Eliashberg spectral function, electron-phonon coupling (EPC), and the critical temperature of blue phosphorene bilayer intercalated by alkali metals (Li, and K) and alkaline earth metals (Ca, and Sr) for both AB and AC stacking orders are studied using the density functional theory and the density functional perturbation theory, within the generalized gradient approximation with van der Waals correction. The present work shows that the blue phosphorene bilayer is dynamically stable in AB stacking for Li and AC stacking for K, Ca, and Sr, and after intercalation, it transforms from a semiconductor to a metal owing to charge transfer between intercalated atoms and phosphorene. Furthermore, the EPC constant and the critical temperature are higher than those of 2D BCS-type superconductors. They are about 3 and 24.61 K respectively for K-intercalated blue phosphorene bilayer. Thus, our results suggest that blue phosphorene is a good candidate for a superconductor.

CONDENSED MATTER : AN INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS JOURNAL 2022; 34:285704. [PMID: 35472760 DOI: 10.1088/1361-648x/ac6a98] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Black phosphorene (BP) have aroused great concern because of its great potential for the application in nanoelectronic devices and high-performance anode materials for alkali metal ion batteries (AIBs). However, the absence of magnetism for an ideal BP limits its wide application in spintronic devices which is one of the important nanoelectronic devices, and its application as a high-performance anode material for AIBs is still to be explored. In this paper, we adopt first-principles calculations to explore the effects of B, C, N, O, F, Al, Si and S atom doping on the magnetic state of monolayer BP and Li or Na atom adsorption and diffusion on the BP. Additionally, the thermal stability of the doped BP systems at room temperature is revealed by theab initiomolecular-dynamics calculations. Our calculated results indicate that O and S doping can make the doped BP become a magnetic semiconductor, C and Si doping makes the doped BP be metallic, and B, N, F and Al doping preserves semiconductor property. Moreover, little structural changes and significant decreases of diffusion barriers in armchair direction and slight increases of diffusion barriers in zigzag direction make B-doped BP beneficial as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). It reveals that S-doping is suitable for improving the performance of SIBs rather than LIBs. Interestingly, it is found that magnetic states of O- and S-doped BP disappear when Li or Na atoms adsorb on them, whereas Li or Na adsorption on B- and Al-doped BP induces magnetic states of these systems. The analyses indicate that the distinct electron transfer between the dopant atom, adatom and neighboring P atoms, and specific electron configuration of dopant atoms cause the magnetism of the systems. Our results suggest that selecting appropriate composition to dope can effectively manipulate magnetic state and improve Li/Na adsorption and diffusion on the BP. These results may inspire further theoretical and experimental exploration on doped two-dimensional (2D) materials in spintronics and doped 2D promising anode materials for high-performance metal ion batteries.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials exhibit a wide range of atomic structures, compositions, and associated versatility of properties. Furthermore, for a given composition, a variety of different crystal structures (i.e., polymorphs) can be observed. Polymorphism in 2D materials presents a fertile landscape for designing novel architectures and imparting new functionalities. The objective of this Review is to identify the polymorphs of emerging 2D materials, describe their polymorph-dependent properties, and outline methods used for polymorph control. Since traditional 2D materials (e.g., graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, and transition metal dichalcogenides) have already been studied extensively, the focus here is on polymorphism in post-dichalcogenide 2D materials including group III, IV, and V elemental 2D materials, layered group III, IV, and V metal chalcogenides, and 2D transition metal halides. In addition to providing a comprehensive survey of recent experimental and theoretical literature, this Review identifies the most promising opportunities for future research including how 2D polymorph engineering can provide a pathway to materials by design.

Abstract
The research on the design of efficient, reliable, and cost-effective biosensors is expanding given its high demand in various fields such as health care, environmental surveillance, agriculture, diagnostics, industries, and so forth. In the last decade, various fascinating and interesting 2D materials with extraordinary properties have been experimentally synthesized and theoretically predicted. 2D materials have been explored for the sensing of different biomolecules because of their large surface area and strong interaction with different biomolecules. Theoretical simulations can bring important insight on the interaction of biomolecules on 2D materials, charge transfer, orbital interactions, and so forth and may play an important role in the development of efficient biosensors. Quantum simulation techniques, such as density functional theory (DFT), are very powerful and are gaining popularity especially with the advent of high-speed computing facilities. This review article provides theoretical insight regarding the interaction of various biomolecules on different 2D materials and the charge transfer between the biomolecules and 2D materials leading to electrochemical signals, which can then provide experimentalists the useful design parameters for fabrication of biosensors. It also includes an overview of quantum simulations, use of the DFT method for simulating biomolecules on 2D materials, parameters obtained from theoretical simulations and sensitivity, and limitations of computational techniques for sensing biomolecules on 2D materials. Furthermore, this review summarizes the recent work in first-principles investigation of 2D materials for the purpose of biomolecule sensing. Beyond the traditional graphene or 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides, some novel and recently proposed 2D materials such as pentagraphene, haeckelite, MXenes, and so forth which have exhibited good sensing applications have also been highlighted.

Abstract
The discovery of materials is increasingly guided by quantum-mechanical crystal-structure prediction, but the structural complexity in bulk and nanoscale materials remains a bottleneck. Here we demonstrate how data-driven approaches can vastly accelerate the search for complex structures, combining a machine-learning (ML) model for the potential-energy surface with efficient, fragment-based searching. We use the characteristic building units observed in Hittorf's and fibrous phosphorus to seed stochastic ("random") structure searches over hundreds of thousands of runs. Our study identifies a family of hierarchically structured allotropes based on a P8 cage as principal building unit, including one-dimensional (1D) single and double helix structures, nanowires, and two-dimensional (2D) phosphorene allotropes with square-lattice and kagome topologies. These findings yield new insight into the intriguingly diverse structural chemistry of phosphorus, and they provide an example for how ML methods may, in the long run, be expected to accelerate the discovery of hierarchical nanostructures.

Abstract
As elemental main group materials (i.e., silicon and germanium) have dominated the field of modern electronics, their monolayer 2D analogues have shown great promise for next-generation electronic materials as well as potential game-changing properties for optoelectronics, energy, and beyond. These atomically thin materials composed of single atomic variants of group III through group VI elements on the periodic table have already demonstrated exciting properties such as near-room-temperature topological insulation in bismuthene, extremely high electron mobilities in phosphorene and silicone, and substantial Li-ion storage capability in borophene. Isolation of these materials within the postgraphene era began with silicene in 2010 and quickly progressed to the experimental identification or theoretical prediction of 15 of the 18 main group elements existing as solids at standard pressure and temperatures. This review first focuses on the significance of defects/functionalization, discussion of different allotropes, and overarching structure-property relationships of 2D main group elemental materials. Then, a complete review of emerging applications in electronics, sensing, spintronics, plasmonics, photodetectors, ultrafast lasers, batteries, supercapacitors, and thermoelectrics is presented by application type, including detailed descriptions of how the material properties may be tailored toward each specific application.

Abstract
Practical applications of two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorus (BP) are limited by its fast degradation under ambient conditions, for which many different mechanisms have been proposed; however, an atomic level understanding of the degradation process is still hindered by the absence of bottom-up methods for the growth of large-scale few-layer black phosphorus. Recent experimental success in the fabrication of single-layer blue phosphorus provides a model system to probe the oxidation mechanism of two-dimensional (2D) phosphorene down to single-layer thicknesses. Here, we report an atomic-scale investigation of the interaction between molecular oxygen and blue phosphorus. The atomic structure of blue phosphorus and the local binding sites of oxygen have been precisely identified using qPlus-based noncontact atomic force microscopy. A combination of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements reveal a thermally reversible oxidation process of blue phosphorus in a pure oxygen atmosphere. Our study clearly demonstrates the essential role of oxygen in the initial oxidation process, and it sheds further light on the fundamental pathways of the degradation mechanism.

Abstract
Black phosphorus (BP), first synthesized in 1914 and rediscovered as a new member of the family of 2D materials in 2014, combines many extraordinary properties of graphene and transition-metal dichalcogenides, such as high charge-carrier mobility, and a tunable direct bandgap. In addition, it displays other distinguishing properties, e.g., ambipolar transport and highly anisotropic properties. The successful application of BP in electronic and optoelectronic devices has stimulated significant research interest in other allotropes and alloys of 2D phosphorene, a class of 2D materials consisting of elemental phosphorus. As an atomically thin sheet, the various interfaces presented in 2D phosphorene (substrate/phosphorene, electrode/phosphorene, dielectric/phosphorene, atmosphere/phosphorene) play dominant roles in its bottom-up synthesis, and determine several key characteristics for the devices, such as carrier injection, carrier transport, carrier concentration, and device stability. The rational design/engineering of interfaces provides an effective way to manipulate the growth of 2D phosphorene, and modulate its electronic and optoelectronic properties to realize high-performance multifunctional devices. Here, recent progress of the interface engineering of 2D phosphorene is highlighted, including the epitaxial growth of single-layer blue phosphorus on different substrates, surface functionalization of BP for high-performance complementary devices, and the investigation of the BP degradation mechanism in ambient air.

Abstract
Black phosphorus is an emerging material in nanoelectronics and nanophotonics due to its high carrier mobility and anisotropic in-plane properties. In addition, the polymorphism of phosphorus leads to numerous searches for new allotropes that are more attractive than black phosphorus in a variety of applications. On the basis of ab initio evolutionary crystal structure search computation, we report the prediction of a phosphorus allotrope called green phosphorus (λ-P), which exhibits direct band gaps ranging from 0.7 to 2.4 eV and strong anisotropy in optical and transport properties. Free-energy calculations show that a single-layer form, termed green phosphorene, is energetically more stable than blue phosphorene, and a phase transition from black to green phosphorene can occur at temperatures above 87 K. We suggest that green phosphorene can be synthesized on corrugated metal surfaces rather than clean surfaces due to its buckled structure, providing guidance to achieving epitaxial growth.

Abstract
Based on the crystal structures of the previously proposed low energy η-P and θ-P, five new phosphorene allotropes were predicted through gene segments recombination method. These five new phosphorene allotropes are confirmed dynamically stable and energetically more favorable than their parents (η-P and θ-P). Especially, the XX-XX type G1-P is confirmed energetically more favorable than most of all the previously proposed phosphorene allotropes, including black phosphorene and blue phosphorene, which is highly expected to be synthesized in future experiment through vapor deposition or epitaxial growth method like blue β-P. The calculated results also show that such a new promising phosphorene allotrope G1-P is a potential candidate for application in nano-electronics according to its middle band gap of about 1.491 eV from DFT-HSE06 calculation.
