Abstract

Abstract: Phosphorus, an emerging energy storage material, has various allotropes and topological structures. Among these allotropes, black phosphorus has aroused growing concern owing to its superior conductivity and excellent thermal stability. This paper has reviewed the applications of red phosphorus and black phosphorus in the lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries, magnesium-ion batteries, supercapacitors and solar cells. The characteristics and main problems of red and black phosphorus for rechargeable batteries are also analyzed in this paper. According to the different advantages and disadvantages between these two kinds of phosphorus, the specifical modifications of the two kinds of phosphorus electrodes were reviewed by the designs of the phosphorus-carbon binary topological structures. The applications and prospects of phosphorus-carbon composites based on different binary topological structures were analyzed.

Key words: red phosphorus, black phosphorus, topological structure, energy storage
