Abstract: We identify the “missing” 1D-phosphorus allotrope, red phosphorus chains, formed in the interior of tip-opened single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Via a comprehensive experimental and theoretical study we show that in intermediate diameter cavities (1.6–2.9 nm), phosphorus vapor condenses into linear P8]P2 chains and fibrous red-phosphorus type cross-linked double-chains. Thermogravimetric and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis estimates ∼7 atom % of elemental phosphorus in the sample, while high-resolution energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping reveals that phosphorus fills the SWCNTs. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) shows long chains inside the nanotubes with varying arrangement and packing density. A detailed match is obtained between density functional theory (DFT) simulations, HRTEM, and low-frequency Raman spectroscopy. Notably, a signature spectroscopic signal for phosphorus chain cross-linking is identified. When coupled with reinterpretation of literature data and wide-ranging DFT calculations, these results reveal a comprehensive picture of the diameter dependence of confined 1D-phosphorus allotropes.
