Abstract

The pressure-induced crystallization of amorphous red phosphorus to black phosphorus was investigated by in situ Raman spectroscopy and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Raman measurements revealed slow crystallization kinetics. The morphology and crystal structural analysis provided detailed information on nucleation and crystal growth as well as the crystallization mechanism.
