Magneto-electronic properties of multilayer black phosphorus

Abstract

We examine the electronic properties of 2D electron gas in black phosphorus multilayers in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field, highlighting the role of in-plane anisotropy on various experimental quantities such as ac magneto-conductivity, screening, and magneto-plasmons. We find that resonant structures in the ac conductivity exhibits a red-shift with increasing doping due to inter-band coupling, $\gamma$. This arises from an extra correction term in the Landau energy spectrum proportional to $n^2\gamma^2$ ($n$ is Landau index), up to second order in $\gamma$. We found also that Coulomb interaction leads to highly anisotropic magneto-excitons.
