| contents | Based on first-principles calculations, we propose a potential access to the yet unrealized freestanding blue phosphorus (blueP) through transformation of black phosphorus (blackP) induced by surface bromine (Br) adsorption. Formation of the Br-P bonds disrupts the original sp3 configurations in blackP, generates unpaired pz electrons and induces a structural transformation that results in blueP formation by re-pairing the pz orbitals. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations confirm that randomly adsorbed Br adatoms on bilayer blackP spontaneously diffuse into specific patterns to render the emergence of the blueP phase. The expected obtainment Br-passivated blueP nanoribbons exhibit tunable band gaps in a wide range and high carrier mobilities of the order of 1000 cm2V-1s-1. This study provides an opportunity to fabricate blueP through the conversion from blackP by tuning its surface chemistry. |
