Phase stability and interlayer interaction of blue phosphorene
In this work, we study the interlayer interactions between sheets of blue phosphorus with quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. We find that as previously observed in black phosphorus, interlayer binding of blue phosphorus cannot be described by van der Waals (vdW) interactions alone within the density functional theory framework. Specifically, while some

Strain-tunable charge carrier mobility of atomically thin phosphorus allotropes
We explore the impact of strain on charge carrier mobility of monolayer $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ and $\delta$-P, the four well known atomically thin allotropes of phosphorus, using density functional theory.

Suppressing Metal–Molecule Charge Transfer With a Phosphorus Interlayer
Phosphorus forms stable reconstructions with remarkable properties on various metal substrates. Here, using a spectroscopic approach, its role as an effective buffer layer on Cu(110) is demonstrated, preventing charge transfer to adsorbed Zn‐tetraphenylporphyrins (ZnTPP).

Role of Interlayer Coupling on the Evolution of Band Edges in Few-Layer Phosphorene
Using first-principles calculations, we have investigated the evolution of band-edges in few-layer phosphorene as a function of the number of P layers. Our results predict that monolayer phosphorene is an indirect band gap semiconductor and its valence ...
