(Nanowerk News) What holds white, black, and red phosphorus together—and prevents it from falling apart, for example into much-sought-after atomically thin networks and nanowires? This is what German ...
Phosphorus comes in a few different forms (or allotropes), including white, red, violet, and black. For a few years scientists have predicted a fifth allotrope should be possible, but it had yet to be ...
Among phosphorous allotropes, relatively stable black phosphorus has been shown to possibly be applied to various kinds of electronics materials by making it into a nanosheet shape having only a few ...
The STM image shows blue phosphorus on a gold substrate. The calculated atomic positions of the slightly elevated P atoms are shown in blue, the lower lying ones in white. Groups of six elevated P ...
In the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, rights groups Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have accused Israel of using white phosphorus munitions in Gaza. White phosphorus is a substance that the ...
In the last few years, two-dimensional crystals have emerged as some of the most exciting new materials to play with. Consequently, materials scientists have been falling over themselves to discover ...
A long-sought-after black phosphous-structured (BP) nitrogen was synthesized by an international team co-led by Dr. Ho-Kwang Mao and Dr. Huiyang Gou from the Center for High Pressure Science and ...
An international team co-led by Ho-Kwang Mao and Huiyang Gou from Center for High Pressure Science and Technology Advanced Research (HPSTAR) and Yansun Yao from University of Saskatchewan discovered ...
The element phosphorus can exist in various allotropes and changes its properties with each new form. So far, red, violet, white and black phosphorus have been known. While some phosphorus compounds ...
