{"title":"A new two-dimensional material: Phosphorene","authors":"Yuerui Lu","doi":"10.1109/IMWS-AMP.2015.7324968","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/IMWS-AMP.2015.7324968","url":null,"abstract":"Summary form only given. Phosphorene [1,2] is a new family member of two dimensional materials. We observed strong and highly layer dependent photoluminescence in few-layer phosphorene (two to five layers) (Fig. 1). The results confirmed the theoretical prediction that few-layer phosphorene has a direct and layer-sensitive band gap. We also demonstrated that few-layer phosphorene is more sensitive to temperature modulation than graphene and MoS2 in Raman scattering. The anisotropic Raman response in few-layer phosphorene has enabled us to use an optical method to quickly determine the crystalline orientation without tunneling electron microscopy or scanning tunneling microscopy. Our results provide much needed experimental information about the band structures and exciton nature in few-layer phosphorene [3]. Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials, including semi-metallic graphene, semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and insulating hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), have been heavily investigated in past decade. Compared with the gapless graphene, most recently investigated TMD semiconductor MoS2 has energy gap in the range of 1.3 eV (bulk) to 1.8 eV (monolayer). MoS2, an indirect band gap material in its bulk form, becomes a direct band gap semiconductor when thinned to a monolayer, enabling significantly enhanced photoluminescence in monolayer MoS2. Black phosphorous (termed as phosphorene) has become a new class of 2D layered material, with predicted layer-dependent band gap ranging from 0.3 eV (bulk) to 1.5 eV (monolayer). Particularly, few-layer phosphorene with narrow band gaps ranging from mid-infrared to near-infrared wavelengths can fill the space between the gapless graphene and the comparably large gap TMD semiconductors. The predicted direct band gap nature in few-layer phosphorene will also enable high-performance optoelectronic devices, compared with the indirect band gap behavior in most few-layer TMD semiconductors. However, so far there has been very little experimental data to confirm the theoretical prediction in few-layer phosphorene.","PeriodicalId":6625,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Workshop Series on Advanced Materials and Processes for RF and THz Applications (IMWS-AMP)","volume":"40 1","pages":"1-1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80951823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The coupling effect provided by the hybrid structure can be accurately modified and optimized by tuning the dimensions of the coupling structure. It was also shown that the electric scatter of the proposed structure allows the implementation of a forward-wave passband propagating below the characteristic cutoff frequency of the waveguide. To demonstrate the validity of the design strategies, a compact 2.4 GHz bandpass HMSIW filter using bowtie-shape coupling structure with sharp selectivity is simulated, fabricated and measured. The dimension of this filter is as small as 0.4λg×0.16λg, where λg is the guide wavelength at the center frequency. The measured results are in good agreement with the simulation.","PeriodicalId":6625,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Workshop Series on Advanced Materials and Processes for RF and THz Applications (IMWS-AMP)","volume":"114 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72805062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
