The stability of the surface of in situ cleaved black phosphorus crystals upon exposure to
atmosphere is investigated with synchrotron-based photoelectron spectroscopy. After 2 days
atmosphere exposure a stable subnanometer layer of primarily P2O5 forms at the surface.
The work function increases by 0.1 eV from 3.9 eV for as-cleaved black phosphorus to 4.0
eV after formation of the 0.4 nm thick oxide, with phosphorus core levels shifting by< 0.1 eV.

The stability of the surface of in situ cleaved black phosphorus crystals upon exposure to atmosphere is investigated with synchrotron-based photoelectron spectroscopy. After 2 days atmosphere exposure a stable subnanometer layer of primarily P2O5 forms at the surface. The work function increases by 0.1 eV from 3.9 eV for as-cleaved black phosphorus to 4.0 eV after formation of the 0.4 nm thick oxide, with phosphorus core levels shifting by <0.1 eV. The results indicate minimal charge transfer, suggesting that the oxide layer is suitable for passivation or as an interface layer for further dielectric deposition.
