Protective molecular passivation of black phosphorus

Making black phosphorus airtight Black phosphorus is a leading contender among new semiconductors for nanoscale optoelectronics, but its use is impeded by rapid degradation in air. A team of Israeli and US scientists, led by Doron Naveh from Bar Ilan University, has devised an inexpensive and scalab...
