Atomic Scale Simulation on the Fracture Mechanism of Black Phosphorus Monolayer under Indentation

Molecular dynamics simulations on the indentation process of freestanding and Pt(111)-supported black phosphorus (BP) monolayer were conducted to study the fracture mechanism of the membrane. For the freestanding BP monolayer, crack grows firstly along armchair direction and then zigzag direction du...
