Abstract

Measurement of gravitational Hawking radiation of black hole (BH) is prohibitive because of an extremely low Hawking temperature (TH). Here we demonstrate a fermionic analog of BH with a super high TH ~ 3 K, which is several orders of magnitude higher than previous works. We propose that Floquet-Dirac states, formed in a periodically laser driven two-dimensional black phosphorous thin film, can be designed with a spatial gradient to mimic the "gravity" felt by fermionic quasiparticles as that for a Schwarzschild BH (SBH). Quantum tunneling of electrons from a type-II Dirac cone (inside BH) to a type-I Dirac cone (outside) emits a SBH-like Hawking radiation spectrum.
