Description
2D pnictogens are considered the most promising nano agents among the family of 2D materials. The pnictogens contain phosphorus, arsenene, antimonene, and bismuthine. It has inherent tunable midrange band gaps and unparalleled mobility. It is popular due to its efficient photothermal behavior, loading capability the drug, high charge carrier mobility, in-plane anisotropic properties and less toxicity. The pnictogens nanosheet is obtained by using the Shear exfoliation method. The exfoliation is feasible when there is the existence of weak van der Waals forces between individual layers and during covalent interactions between layers, these elements will adopt the rhombohedral structure. Raman spectroscopy acts as the molecular fingerprints in identifying the number of layers and temperature dependence peak shift of pnictogen substances. The biosensor device can be made by using a layer-by-layer method for each pnictogen, cross-linking agent, and enzyme. Pnictogens can be employed in the application of photothermal therapy (PTT) to overcome the hinder which is because of the lack of efficient cell perception and cell toxicity. It can be used in biomedical applications to make the candidates absorb the ultraviolet and infrared lights as preferable. It can also be used in Biosensors, diagnosis, therapy and in anti-bacterial, anti-inflammation, anti-tumor, neurodegenerative treatment, and tissue repair. Pnictogen has many advantages in the application of biosensing and imaging techniques, but the main disadvantage of pnictogens are low thermal and chemical stability and degradation in ambient conditions. Therefore, this chapter focuses on different characteristics and various applications of pnictogen. 2025 Scrivener Publishing LLC.
