Resistivity measurements of a few-layer black phosphorus (bP) crystal in parallel magnetic fields up to 45 T are reported as a function of the angle between the in-plane field and the source-drain (S-D) axis of the device. The crystallographic directions of the bP crystal were determined by Raman spectroscopy, with the zigzag axis found within 5{deg} of the S-D axis, and the armchair axis in the orthogonal planar direction. A transverse magneto-resistance (TMR) as well as a classically-forbidden longitudinal magneto-resistance (LMR) are observed. Both are found to be strongly anisotropic and non-monotonic with increasing in-plane field. Surprisingly, the relative magnitude (in %) of the positive LMR is larger than the TMR above $sim$32 T. Considering the known anisotropy of bP whose zigzag and armchair effective masses differ by a factor of approximately seven, our experiment strongly suggests this LMR to be a consequence of the anisotropic Fermi surface of bP.

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.
We combine femtosecond electron diffuse scattering experiments and first-principles calculations of the coupled electron-phonon dynamics to provide a detailed momentum-resolved picture of the ultrafast lattice thermalization in a thin film of black p hosphorus. The measurements reveal the emergence of highly anisotropic non-thermal phonon populations which persist for several picoseconds following excitation of the electrons with a light pulse. Combining ultrafast dynamics simulations based on the time-dependent Boltzmann formalism and calculations of the structure factor, we reproduce the experimental data and identify the vibrational modes primarily responsible for the carrier relaxation via electron-phonon coupling and the subsequent lattice thermalization via phonon-phonon scattering. In particular, we attribute the non-equilibrium lattice dynamics of black phosphorus to highly-anisotropic phonon-assisted scattering processes, which are primarily mediated by high-energy optical phonons. Our approach paves the way towards unravelling and controlling microscopic energy-flow pathways in two-dimensional materials and van der Waals heterostructures, and may also be extended to other non-equilibrium phenomena involving coupled electron-phonon dynamics such as superconductivity, phase transitions or polaron physics.
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.

Black phosphorous (BP) is a layered semiconductor with high carrier mobility, anisotropic optical response and wide bandgap tunability. In view of its application in optoelectronic devices, understanding transient photo-induced effects is crucial. He re, we investigate by time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy BP in its pristine state and in the presence of Stark splitting, chemically induced by Cs ad-sorption. We show that photo-injected carriers trigger bandgap renormalization and a concurrent valence band attening caused by Pauli blocking. In the biased sample, photoexcitation leads to a long-lived (ns) surface photovoltage of few hundreds mV that counterbalances the Cs-induced surface band bending. This allows us to disentangle bulk from surface electronic states and to clarify the mechanism underlying the band inversion observed in bulk samples.
