TP38 - Enhancing Stability of Few-Layer Black Phosphorus via Nitrocellulose Encapsulation for Optoelectronic Applica-tions

Authors:

Abstract
Few-layer black phosphorus (FLBP) degrades rapidly in ambient conditions, hindering its practical applications. We demonstrate that a nitrocellulose encapsulation film enables real-time optical monitoring of FLBP while protecting it from degradation. Optical transmission measurements performed over 3 hours confirm the stability of encapsulated samples compared to unprotected references. This approach enables the integration of FLBP in photonic devices under ambient conditions.
