[[Phosphorene]] is a 2-dimensional, crystalline allotrope of [[phosphorus]]. Its mono-atomic hexagonal structure makes it conceptually similar to graphene. However, phosphorene has substantially different electronic properties; in particular it possesses a nonzero band gap while displaying high electron mobility.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|title = Beyond Graphene, a Zoo of New 2-D Materials|url = http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/crux/2015/07/17/beyond-graphene/#.Vane-PlVhBe |publisher=Discover Magazine |first=Andy |last=Berger |date= July 17, 2015 |access-date = 2015-09-19}}</ref> This property potentially makes it a better semiconductor than graphene.<ref>{{Cite journal | doi = 10.1038/nnano.2014.35| title = Black phosphorus field-effect transistors| journal = Nature Nanotechnology| volume = 9| issue = 5| pages = 372–377| year = 2014| last1 = Li | first1 = L. | last2 = Yu | first2 = Y. | last3 = Ye | first3 = G.

The synthesis of phosphorene mainly consists of micromechanical cleavage or liquid phase exfoliation methods. The former has a low yield while the latter produce free standing nanosheets in solvent and not on the solid support. The bottom-up approaches like chemical vapor deposition (CVD) are still blank because of its high reactivity. Therefore, in the current scenario, the most effective method for large area fabrication of thin films of phosphorene consists of wet assembly techniques like [[Langmuir–Blodgett film|Langmuir-Blodgett]] involving the assembly followed by deposition of nanosheets on solid supports.<ref name="ReferenceA">{{Cite journal | doi = 10.1038/srep34095 | pmid = 27671093| pmc = 5037434| title = Large Area Fabrication of Semiconducting Phosphorene by Langmuir-Blodgett Assembly| journal = Sci.

=== Mechanical Characterizationcharacterization ===
The mechanical characterization of 2D materials is difficult due to ambient reactivity and substrate constraints present in many 2D materials. To this end, many mechanical properties are calculated using [[molecular dynamics]] simulations or [[molecular mechanics]] simulations. Experimental mechanical characterization is possible in 2D materials which can survive the conditions of the experimental setup as well as can be deposited on suitable substrates or exist in a free-standing form. Many 2D materials also possess out-of-plane deformation which further convolute measurements.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Androulidakis |first1=Charalampos |last2=Zhang |first2=Kaihao |last3=Robertson |first3=Matthew |last4=Tawfick |first4=Sameh |date=2018-06-13 |title=Tailoring the mechanical properties of 2D materials and heterostructures |url=https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2053-1583/aac764 |journal=2D Materials |volume=5 |issue=3 |pages=032005 |doi=10.1088/2053-1583/aac764 |bibcode=2018TDM.....5c2005A |s2cid=139728037 |issn=2053-1583}}</ref>
 
[[Nanoindentation]] testing is commonly used to experimentally measure [[elastic modulus]], [[hardness]], and [[Fracture|fracture strength]] of 2D materials. From these directly measured values, models exist which allow the estimation of [[fracture toughness]], [[Work hardening|work hardening exponent]], residual stress, and [[Yield (engineering)|yield strength]]. These experiments are ran using dedicated nanoindentation equipment or an [[Atomic force microscopy|Atomic Force Microscope]] (AFM). Nanoindentation experiments are generally ran with the 2D material as a linear strip clamped on both ends experiencing indentation by a wedge, or with the 2D material as a circular membrane clamped around the circumference experiencing indentation by a curbed tip in the center. The strip geometry is difficult to prepare but allows for easier analysis due to linear resulting stress fields. The circular drum-like geometry is more commonly used and can be easily prepared by exfoliating samples onto a patterned substrate. The stress applied to the film in the clamping process can be is refereed to as the residual stress. In the case of very thin layers of 2D materials bending stress is generally ignored in indentation measurements, with bending stress becoming relevant in multilayer samples. Elastic modulus and residual stress values can be extracted by determining the linear and cubic portions of the experimental force-displacement curve. The fracture stress of the 2D sheet is extracted from the applied stress at failure of the sample. AFM tip size was found to have little effect on elastic property measurement, but the breaking force was found to have a strong tip size dependence due stress concentration at the apex of the tip.<ref name="auto">{{Cite journal |last1=Lee |first1=Changgu |last2=Wei |first2=Xiaoding |last3=Kysar |first3=Jeffrey W. |last4=Hone |first4=James |date=2008-07-18 |title=Measurement of the Elastic Properties and Intrinsic Strength of Monolayer Graphene |url=https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1157996 |journal=Science |language=en |volume=321 |issue=5887 |pages=385–388 |doi=10.1126/science.1157996 |pmid=18635798 |bibcode=2008Sci...321..385L |s2cid=206512830 |issn=0036-8075}}</ref> Using these techniques the elastic modulus and yield strength of graphene were found to be 342 N/m and 55 N/m respectively.<ref name="auto"/>
 
[[Poisson's ratio|Poisson’s ratio]] measurements in 2D materials is generally straightforward.
