The in-plane negative refraction of high-momentum (i.e., high-k) photonic modes could enable many applications such as imaging and hyperlensing in a planar platform at deep-subwavelength scales. However, its practical implementation in…
Black phosphorus is not stable when it is exposed to air. When covered or terminated by single layer carbon atoms, such as graphene carbon nanotube, it is more strongly protected in the rapid degradation than the bare black phosphorus.…
