Mid-infrared light emitting diodes (LEDs) based on black phosphorus (BP) have shown promising performance, but they are usually limited by the environmental instability of the material. Here, the authors extrapolate a room-temperature operational lifetime of BP LEDs up to ~ 15,000 h via Al2O3 passivation and nitrogen seal packaging.
