Fig. 1. Schematic illustration of the wave reflection at a surface of black phosphorus in a Cartesian coordinate system. A black phosphorus sheet is placed on the top of a homogeneous and isotropic substrate. The photonic SHE occurs on the reflecting surface and exhibits in-plane and transverse spin Hall shifts.

Fig. 2. Real and imaginary parts of the conductivity of the 2D atomic crystal as a function of frequency. Parameters are set as η = 0.01 eV , ω x = 1 eV , and ω y = 0.35 eV . The frequency of interband electron transitions is present at ω y = 0.35 eV . (a), (b) The optical axis is chosen as ϕ = 0 ° . (c), (d) The optical axis is chosen as ϕ = 30 ° . The doping concentration of the 2D atomic crystal is n = 5 × 10 13 cm − 2 .
