Abstract:
We compare the simplified valence-force model for single-layer black phosphorus with the original model and recent ab initio results. Using an analytic approach and numerical calculations we find that the simplified model yields Young's moduli that are smaller compared to the original model and are almost a factor of two smaller than ab initio results. Moreover, the Poisson ratios are an order of magnitude smaller than values found in the literature.
