Future Prospects and Challenges of Black Phosphorous Materials

Abstract

The cutting-edge developments in the field of black phosphorus (BP) nanostructures have contributed significantly to the progress of 2D nanomaterials in a broad range of foreseeable applications. This chapter intends to outline the remaining challenges and prospects of different BP nanomaterials, including the bulk phase, few-layer BP structures, nanoribbons, nanotubes, and heterostructures. Potential perspectives in different application areas including but not limited to electronic devices, sensors, biomedical devices, and catalysis are briefly reviewed.
