Phosphorene is a layered low-dimensional nanomaterial composed of phosphorous atoms via strong P-P covalent bonds and weak interlayer Van der Waals forces that resembles a puckered hexagonal structure that is different of the flattened structure of graphene . This structure has been successfully isolated employing liquid-phase exfoliation and mechanical cleavage of black phosphorus , and it shows interesting properties such as experimental stability, sizable direct bandgap (1.5 eV for monolayer phosphorene), and high electron mobility at room temperature (up to 1000 cm 2 V -1 s -1 ) . The study of phosphorene-based materials is an increasing field of research, focusing on their applications in nanoelectronics devices, energy storage and solar cells, fieldeffect transistors, photocatalysis, optoelectronics, and photovoltaic devices . Doped phosphorene have also been proposed as potential next-generation materials for spintronics, photoelectronic and optical devices, catalysis, storage, pollutant, removal, and gas sensing .
