Elastic Bending Modulus for Single-Layer Black Phosphorus

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We derive an analytic formula for the elastic bending modulus of single-layer black phosphorus (SLBP) based on the valence force field model. The obtained elastic bending modulus is 4.8028 eV and 7.9905 eV along the armchair and zigzag directions in the SLBP, respectively. These values are obviously larger than the bending modulus of 1.4 eV in graphene due to the intrinsic finite thickness for SLBP. Our derivation analytically illustrates that the elastic bending modulus of the SLBP is proportional to the square of the intrinsic thickness of the SLBP.
