Black Phosphorus Crystals

Description

Black Phosphorus Crystals (BP)

Black Phosphorus (BP) is a layered semiconductor with a puckered orthorhombic structure, exhibiting strong anisotropic electronic, optical, and thermal properties. Its direct bandgap, which is tunable from ~0.3 eV (bulk) to ~2.0 eV (monolayer), makes it an outstanding material for applications in optoelectronics, photonics, energy storage, and 2D materials research. Our Black Phosphorus crystals are synthesized using the Chemical Vapor Transport (CVT) method, ensuring high purity, precise stoichiometry, and exceptional crystallinity.
