Semi-metallic graphene and semiconducting monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are the two-dimensional (2D) materials most intensively studied in recent years. Recently, black phosphorus emerged as a promising new 2D material due to its widely tunable and direct bandgap, high carrier mobility and remarkable in-plane anisotropic electrical, optical and phonon properties. However, current progress is primarily limited to its thin-film form, and its unique properties at the truly 2D quantum confinement have yet to be demonstrated. Here, we reveal highly anisotropic and tightly bound excitons in monolayer black phosphorus using polarization-resolved photoluminescence measurements at room temperature. We show that regardless of the excitation laser polarization, the emitted light from the monolayer is linearly polarized along the light effective mass direction and centers around 1.3 eV, a clear signature of emission from highly anisotropic bright excitons. In addition, photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy suggests a quasiparticle bandgap of 2.2 eV, from which we estimate an exciton binding energy of around 0.9 eV, consistent with theoretical results based on first-principles. The experimental observation of highly anisotropic, bright excitons with exceedingly large binding energy not only opens avenues for the future explorations of many-electron effects in this unusual 2D material, but also suggests a promising future in optoelectronic devices such as on-chip infrared light sources.

Raman scattering and photoluminescence spectroscopy are used to investigate the optical properties of single layer black phosphorus obtained by mechanical exfoliation of bulk crystals under an argon atmosphere. The Raman spectroscopy, performed in si
tu on the same flake as the photoluminescence measurements, demonstrates the single layer character of the investigated samples. The emission spectra, dominated by excitonic effects, display the expected in plane anisotropy. The emission energy depends on the type of substrate on which the flake is placed due to the different dielectric screening. Finally, the blue shift of the emission with increasing temperature is well described using a two oscillator model for the temperature dependence of the band gap.
Weak localization was observed and determined in a black phosphorus (bP) field-effect transistor 65 nm thick. The weak localization behaviour was found to be in excellent agreement with the Hikami-Larkin-Nagaoka model for fields up to 1~T, from which
characteristic scattering lengths could be inferred. The dephasing length $L_phi$ was found to increase linearly with increasing hole density attaining a maximum value of 55 nm at a hole density of approximately $10^{13} cm^{-2}$ inferred from the Hall effect. The temperature dependence of $L_phi$ was also investigated and above 1~K, it was found to decrease weaker than the $L_phi propto T^{-frac{1}{2}}$ dependence characteristic of electron-electron scattering in the presence of elastic scattering in two dimensions. Rather, the observed power law was found to be close to that observed previously in other quasi-one-dimensional systems such as metallic nanowires and carbon nanotubes. We attribute our result to the crystal structure of bP which host a `puckered honeycomb lattice forming a strongly anisotropic medium
Recently, it was demonstrated that a graphene/dielectric/metal configuration can support acoustic plasmons, which exhibit extreme plasmon confinement an order of magnitude higher than that of conventional graphene plasmons. Here, we investigate acous
tic plasmons supported in a monolayer and multilayers of black phosphorus (BP) placed just a few nanometers above a conducting plate. In the presence of a conducting plate, the acoustic plasmon dispersion for the armchair direction is found to exhibit the characteristic linear scaling in the mid- and far-infrared regime while it largely deviates from that in the long wavelength limit and near-infrared regime. For the zigzag direction, such scaling behavior is not evident due to relatively tighter plasmon confinement. Further, we demonstrate a new design for an acoustic plasmon resonator that exhibits higher plasmon confinement and resonance efficiency than BP ribbon resonators in the mid-infrared and longer wavelength regime. Theoretical framework and new resonator design studied here provide a practical route toward the experimental verification of the acoustic plasmons in BP and open up the possibility to develop novel plasmonic and optoelectronic devices that can leverage its strong in-plane anisotropy and thickness-dependent band gap.
We report about the energy and momentum resolved optical response of black phosphorus (BP) in its bulk form. Along the armchair direction of the puckered layers we find a highly dispersive mode that is trongly suppressed in the perpendicular (zig-zag
) direction. This mode emerges out of the single-particle continuum for finite values of momentum and is therefore interpreted as an exciton. We argue that this exciton, which has already been predicted theoretically for phosphorene -- the monolayer form of BP -- can be detected by conventional optical spectroscopy in the two-dimensional case and might pave the way for optoelectronic applications of this emerging material.
Optical and electronic properties of black phosphorus strongly depend on the number of layers and type of stacking. Using first-principles calculations within the framework of density functional theory, we investigate the electronic properties of bil
ayer black phosphorus with an interlayer twist angle of 90$^circ$. These calculations are complemented with a simple $vec{k}cdotvec{p}$ model which is able to capture most of the low energy features and is valid for arbitrary twist angles. The electronic spectrum of 90$^circ$ twisted bilayer black phosphorus is found to be x-y isotropic in contrast to the monolayer. However x-y anisotropy, and a partial return to monolayer-like behavior, particularly in the valence band, can be induced by an external out-of-plane electric field. Moreover, the preferred hole effective mass can be rotated by 90$^circ$ simply by changing the direction of the applied electric field. In particular, a +0.4 (-0.4) V/{AA} out-of-plane electric field results in a $sim$60% increase in the hole effective mass along the y (x) axis and enhances the $m^*_{y}/m^*_{x}$ ($m^*_{x}/m^*_{y}$) ratio as much as by a factor of 40. Our DFT and $vec{k}cdotvec{p}$ simulations clearly indicate that the twist angle in combination with an appropriate gate voltage is a novel way to tune the electronic and optical properties of bilayer phosphorus and it gives us a new degree of freedom to engineer the properties of black phosphorus based devices.
