Abstract

Bulk black phosphorus (BP) crystals are synthesized and exfoliated into layered BP with different lateral size and thickness, in article number 1701210 by Qing Zhao, Qingfeng Yan, and Baoshan Xing, and co-workers. The results of real-time cell analysis (RTCA) display a concentration-, size-, and cell type-dependent cytotoxicity of layered BP. The cytotoxicity originates from the intracellular ROS generation and cell membrane disruption, but only the latter is related to size effect.
