Abstract
The family of emerging low-symmetry and structural in-plane anisotropic 2D materials have been expanding rapidly in recent years. As an important emerging anisotropic 2D material, the black phosphorene (BP) analog group IVA-VI metal monochalcogenides (MMCs) have been surged recently due to their distinctive crystalline symmetries, exotic in-plane anisotropic electronic and optical response, earth abundant and environmentally friendly characteristics. In this article, we review the recent research advancements in the field of anisotropic 2D MMCs. At first, the unique wavy crystal structures together with the optical and electronic properties of such materials are discussed. The review continues with the various methods adopted for the synthesis of layered MMCs including micromechanical and liquid phase exfoliation as well as physical vapor deposition. The last part of the article focuses on the application of the structural anisotropic response of 2D MMCs in field effect transistors, photovoltaic cells nonlinear optics and valleytronic devices. Besides presenting the significant research in the field of this emerging class of 2D materials, this review also delineates the existing limitations and discusses emerging possibilities and future prospects.
