Abstract

Exciton brightening in monolayer phosphorene is achieved via the dimensionality modification of excitons from quasi-1D to 0D. The luminescence quantum yield of 0D-like excitons is >33.6 times larger than that of quasi-1D free excitons. 2D phosphorene with quasi-1D free excitons and 0D-like excitons provides a unique platform to investigate the fundamental phenomena in the ideal 2D-1D-0D hybrid system.
