In this work, a periodic bowtie structure based on black phosphorus (BP) is theoretically proposed and characterized. It is demonstrated that localized surface plasmons can be excited in the BP nanoantennas at terahertz (THz) frequencies. Numerical investigations, using the numerical method finite-difference time-domain (FDTD), have been utilized to analyze the the dimensions' impact on absorption spectra. Furthermore, the electric field distribution is plotted and discussed to explain the resonance wavelength tuning by different geometrical sizes of the structure. Results reveal that the optimized BP bow-tie structure can be allowed for the realization of two-dimensional nanophotonics at terahertz frequencies.
