Black Phosphorus

Black phosphorus (BP) is a semiconductor that has emerged as a new two-dimensional material, going beyond graphene and TMDs. This book reviews how BP-based materials are manufactured, what properties they have, how they are characterized and where they are used.

The chapters cover the basic fundamentals, synthesis methods, properties, applications and current research on BP-based materials through detailed reviews. The applications discussed include practical uses that point to future directions in biomedical, photo-related, environmental and energy fields, among others.

The volume brings together contributions from many experts with different backgrounds and specialties. It is aimed at researchers, scientists and students in areas such as semiconductor technology, energy and environmental science. It also covers industrial applications, helping to bridge the gap between laboratory research and practical use in related industries.
