High-level first-principles computations predict blue phosphorene bilayer to be a two-dimensional metal. This structure has not been considered before and was identified by employing a block-diagram scheme that yields the complete set of five high-symmetry stacking configurations of buckled honeycomb layers, and allows their unambiguous classification. We show that all of these stacking configurations are stable or at least metastable configurations both for blue phosphorene and gray arsenene bilayers. For blue phosphorene, the most stable stacking configuration has not yet been reported, and surprisingly it is metallic, while all other arrangements are indirect band gap semiconductors. As it is impossible to interchange the stacking configurations by translations, all of them should be experimentally accessible via the transfer of monolayers. The metallic character of blue phosphorene bilayer is caused by its short interlayer distance of 3.01 {AA} and offers the exceptional possibility to design single elemental all-phosphorus transistors.

Growth of two-dimensional metals has eluded materials scientists since the discovery of the atomically thin graphene and other covalently bound 2D materials. Here, we report a two-atom-thick hexagonal copper-gold alloy, grown through thermal evaporat
ion on freestanding graphene and hexagonal boron nitride. The structures are imaged at atomic resolution with scanning transmission electron microscopy and further characterized with spectroscopic techniques. Electron irradiation in the microscope provides sufficient energy for a phase transformation of the 2D structure--atoms are released from their lattice sites with the gold atoms eventually forming face-centered cubic nanoclusters on top of 2D regions during observation. The presence of copper in the alloy enhances sticking of gold to the substrate, which has clear implications for creating atomically thin electrodes for applications utilizing 2D materials. Its practically infinite surface-to-bulk ratio also makes the 2D CuAu particularly interesting for catalysis applications.
textit{Ab-initio} calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) are performed to study the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of two-dimensional (2D) free-standing honeycomb CrAs. We show that CrAs has low buckled stable structur
e. Magnetic CrAs has larger buckling than non-magnetic CrAs. 2D-CrAs is a ferromagnetic semiconductor for lattice constant $a leq 3.71$AA, and above this lattice constant CrAs is a half-metal ferromagnet. 2D-CrAs is shown to be half-metal ferromagnetic with magnetic moment of 3.0$mu_{rm{B}}$ per unit cell, at equilibrium structure. The $d_{z}^{2}$ orbital of $e_{g}$ band is completely empty in the spin-down state whereas it is almost occupied in the spin-up state, and the magnetic moment in the $e_{g}$ band is mainly dominated by the $d_{z}^{2}$ orbital of Cr. The $d_{zx}/d_{zy}$ and $d_{xy}$ orbitals of $t_{2g}$ band are partially occupied in the spin-up state and behaves as metal whereas they are insulator in the spin-down state. Phonon calculations confirm the thermodynamic stability of 2D-CrAs. The ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) interaction between the Cr atoms reveal that the FM state is more stable than the AFM state of 2D-CrAs.
The anisotropic nature of the new two-dimensional (2D) material phosphorene, in contrast to other 2D materials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors, allows excitons to be confined in a quasi-one-dimensional (1D) s
pace predicted in theory, leading to remarkable phenomena arising from the reduced dimensionality and screening. Here, we report a trion (charged exciton) binding energy of 190 meV in few-layer phosphorene at room temperature, which is nearly one to two orders of magnitude larger than those in 2D TMD semiconductors (20-30 meV) and quasi-2D quantum wells (1-5 meV). Such a large binding energy has only been observed in truly 1D materials such as carbon nanotubes, whose optoelectronic applications have been severely hurdled by their intrinsically small optical cross-sections. Phosphorene offers an elegant way to overcome this hurdle by enabling quasi-1D excitonic and trionic behaviors in a large 2D area, allowing optoelectronic integration. We experimentally validated the quasi-1D nature of excitonic and trionic dynamics in phospherene by demonstrating completely linearly polarized light emission from excitons and trions. The implications of the extraordinarily large trion binding energy in a higher-than-one-dimensional material are far-reaching. It provides a room-temperature 2D platform to observe the fundamental many-body interactions in the quasi-1D region. The strong photoluminescence emission in phosphorene has been electrically tuned over a large spectral range at room temperature, which opens a new route for tunable light sources.
We present a many-body formalism for the simulation of time-resolved nonlinear spectroscopy and apply it to study the coherent interaction between excitons and trions in doped transition-metal dichalcogenides. Although the formalism can be straightfo
rwardly applied in a first-principles manner, for simplicity we use a parameterized band structure and a static model dielectric function, both of which can be obtained from a calculation using the $GW$ approximation. Our simulation results shed light on the interplay between singlet and triplet trions in molybdenum- and tungsten-based compounds. Our two-dimensional electronic spectra are in excellent agreement with recent experiments and we accurately reproduce the beating of a cross-peak signal indicative of quantum coherence between excitons and trions. Although we confirm that the quantum beats in molybdenum-based monolayers unambigously reflect the exciton-trion coherence time, they are shown here to provide a lower-bound to the coherence time of tungsten analogues due to a destructive interference emerging from coexisting singlet and triplet trions.
We perform a systematic first-principles study of phosphorene in the presence of typical monovalent (hydrogen, fluorine) and divalent (oxygen) impurities. The results of our modeling suggest a decomposition of phosphorene into weakly bonded one-dimen
sional (1D) chains upon single- and double-side hydrogenation and fluorination. In spite of a sizable quasiparticle band gap (2.29 eV), fully hydrogenated phosphorene found to be dynamically unstable. In contrast, full fluorination of phosphorene gives rise to a stable structure, being an indirect gap semiconductor with the band gap of 2.27 eV. We also show that fluorination of phosphorene from the gas phase is significantly more likely than hydrogenation due to the relatively low energy barrier for the dissociative adsorption of F2 (0.19 eV) compared to H2 (2.54 eV). At low concentrations, monovalent impurities tend to form regular atomic rows phosphorene, though such patterns do not seem to be easily achievable due to high migration barriers (1.09 and 2.81 eV for H2 and F2, respectively). Oxidation of phosphorene is shown to be a qualitatively different process. Particularly, we observe instability of phosphorene upon oxidation, leading to the formation of disordered amorphous-like structures at high concentrations of impurities.
