Broadband nonlinear optical response in multi-layer black phosphorus: an emerging infrared and mid-infrared optical material

Black phosphorous (BP), the most thermodynamically stable allotrope of phosphorus, is a high-mobility layered semiconductor with direct band-gap determined by the number of layers from 0.3 eV (bulk) to 2.0 eV (single layer). Therefore, BP is considered as a natural candidate for broadband optical ap... View More
