Recently, black phosphorus (BP) has joined the two-dimensional material family as a promising candidate for photonic applications due to its moderate bandgap, high carrier mobility, and compatibility with diverse range of substrates. Photodetectors are probably most explored BP devices, however, their unique potential compared other layered materials in mid-infrared wavelength not been revealed. Here, we demonstrate detectors at 3.39 μm internal gain, resulting an external responsivity 82...
Black phosphorus (BP) has recently attracted significant attention due to its exceptional physical properties. Currently, high-quality few-layer and thin-film BP are produced primarily by mechanical exfoliation, limiting their potential in future applications.

Recent years have seen a boom in the interest of using alleged ferroelectric `negative capacitance' to realize low subthreshold swing MOSFETs.
