摘要

As the scaling of silicon-based field-effect transistors has approached its physical limits,the search for alternative channel materials for future logic devices has attracted much attention.The discovery of graphene has unveiled another material family with layered structures called two-dimensional (2D) materials.Black phosphorus (BP),the most stable allotrope of phosphorus,was introduced as a new type of 2D material in 2014.Thanks to its high mobility,in-plane anisotropy and direct band gap,BP is considered to be a promising candidate for next-generation electronic and optoelectronic devices.Numerous studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of introducing BP for device architectures.Herein,we present a review outlining recent progress towards high performance BP-based transistors.This review starts with the fundamental properties of BP,including its crystal structure,bandgap,and direct current (DC)and radio-frequency (RF) characteristics,followed by a detailed description of the modulation and application of those properties,involving anisotropy,functionalization and superlattices.Furthermore,we also discuss device design for high-performance transistors,with particular emphasis on interface engineering and device stability.Finally,we offer our perspective on the future of BP electronics,aiming to benefit colleagues who are interested in this exciting research field.
