Abstract
For atomically thin two-dimensional materials, variations in layer thickness can result in significant changes in the electronic energy band structure and physicochemical properties, thereby influencing the carrier dynamics and device performance. In this work, we employ time- and energy-resolved photoemission electron microscopy to reveal the ultrafast carrier dynamics of PdSe2 with different layer thicknesses. We find that for few-layer PdSe2 with a semiconductor phase, an ultrafast hot carrier cooling on a timescale of approximately 0.3 ps and an ultrafast defect trapping on a timescale of approximately 1.3 ps are unveiled, followed by a slower decay of approximately tens of picoseconds. However, for bulk PdSe2 with a semimetal phase, only an ultrafast hot carrier cooling and a slower decay of approximately tens of picoseconds are observed, while the contribution of defect trapping is suppressed with the increase of layer number. Theoretical calculations of the electronic energy band structure further confirm the transition from a semiconductor to a semimetal. Our work demonstrates that TR- and ER-PEEM with ultrahigh spatiotemporal resolution and wide-field imaging capability has great advantages in revealing the intricate details of ultrafast carrier dynamics of nanomaterials.

Abstract
Metal chalcogenide nanoparticles play a vital role in a wide range of applications and are typically stabilized by organic derivatives containing thiol, amine, or carboxyl moieties, where the nonconjugated particle-ligand interfaces limit the electronic interactions between the inorganic cores and organic ligands. Herein, a wet-chemistry method is developed for the facile preparation of stable platinum chalcogenide (S, Se) nanoparticles capped with acetylene derivatives (e.g., 4-ethylphenylacetylene, EPA). The formation of Pt-C≡ conjugated bonds at the nanoparticle interfaces, which is confirmed by optical and X-ray spectroscopic measurements, leads to markedly enhanced electronic interactions between the d electrons of the nanoparticle cores and π electrons of the acetylene moiety, in stark contrast to the mercapto-capped counterparts with only nonconjugated Pt-S- interfacial bonds, as manifested in spectroscopic measurements and density functional theory calculations. This study underscores the significance of conjugated anchoring linkages in the stabilization and functionalization of metal chalcogenides, a unique strategy for diverse applications.

Abstract
Phase regulation of noble metal-based nanomaterials provides a promising strategy for boosting the catalytic performance. However, realizing the continuous phase modulation in two-dimensional structures and unveiling the relevant structure-performance relationship remain significant challenges. In this work, we present the first example of continuous phase modulation in a library of Pd-Te hexagonal nanoplates (HNPs) from cubic-phase Pd4Te, rhombohedral-phase Pd20Te7, rhombohedral-phase Pd8Te3, and hexagonal-phase PdTe to hexagonal-phase PdTe2. Notably, the continuous phase regulation of the well-defined Pd-Te HNPs enables the successful modulation of the distance between adjacent Pd active sites, triggering an exciting way for tuning the relevant catalytic reactions intrinsically. The proof-of-concept oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) experiment shows a Pd-Pd distance-dependent ORR performance, where the hexagonal-phase PdTe HNPs present the best electrochemical performance in ORR (mass activity and specific activity of 1.02 A mg-1Pd and 1.83 mA cm-2Pd at 0.9 V vs RHE). Theoretical investigation reveals that the increased Pd-Pd distance relates to the weak *OH adsorption over Pd-Te HNPs, thus contributing to the remarkable ORR activity of PdTe HNPs. This work advances the phase-controlled synthesis of noble metal-based nanostructures, which gives huge impetus to the design of high-efficiency nanomaterials for diverse applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) layered palladium dichalcogenides PdX2 (X = S and Se) have attracted increasing interest due to their tunable electronic structure and abundant physicochemical properties. Recently, as the sister material of PdX2, PdSSe has received increasing attention and shows great promise for technological applications and fundamental research. In the present study, we focus on the layer-dependent geometry, electronic structure, and optical properties of PdSSe using first-principles calculations. The lattice shrinkage effect present in the 2D structure is suppressed with increasing number of layers. Attributed to the strong interlayer coupling interactions, the band gap decreases from 2.30 to 0.83 eV with increased thickness. Particularly, the dispersion of the band edges on the high symmetry path changes considerably from the monolayer to bilayer PdSSe, resulting in shifts of the conduction band minimum and valence band maximum. The multilayer PdSSe shows band convergence feature with multi-valley for the conduction band, which are maintained with reduced effective mass. Furthermore, the increasing number of layers drives a wider absorption range in the visible light region, and the light absorption capability increases from ∼10% to ∼30%. Meanwhile, the band edge positions of the multilayer PdSSe are more appropriate for photocatalytic water splitting. Our theoretical study reveals the enhanced valley convergence, conductivity and optical absorption performance of the few-layer PdSSe, which suggests its promising application in thermoelectric conversion, solar harvesting and photocatalysis.

Abstract
2D materials with mixed crystal phase will lead to the nonuniformity of performance and go against the practical application. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a valid method to synthesize 2D materials with typical stoichiometry. Here, 2D palladium sulfides with centimeter scale and uniform stoichiometric ratio are synthesized via controlling the sulfurization temperature of palladium thin films. The relationship between sulfurization temperature and products is investigated in depth. Besides, the high-quality 2D PdS2 films are synthesized via sulfurization at the temperature of 450-550 °C, which would be compatible with back-end-of-line processes in semiconductor industry with considering of process temperature. The PdS2 films show an n-type semiconducting behavior with high mobility of 10.4 cm2 V-1 s-1 . The PdS2 photodetector presents a broadband photoresponse from 450 to 1550 nm. These findings provide a reliable way to synthesizing high-quality and large-area 2D materials with uniform crystal phase. The result suggests that 2D PdS2 has significant potential in future nanoelectronics and optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
Photocatalytic overall water splitting with two-dimensional materials is a promising strategy to solve the problems of environmental pollution and energy shortage. However, conventional photocatalysts are often limited to a narrow visible photo-absorption range, low catalytic activity, and poor charge separation. Herein, given the intrinsic polarization facilitating the improvement of photogenerated carrier separation, we adopt a polarized g-C3N5 material combining the doping strategy to alleviate the abovementioned problems. Boron (B), as a Lewis acid, has a great chance to improve the capture and catalytic activity of water. By doping B into g-C3N5, the overpotential for the complicated four-electron process of the oxygen reduction reaction is only 0.50 V. Simultaneously, the B doping-induced impurity state effectively reduces the band gap and broadens the photo-absorption range. Moreover, with the increase of B doping concentration, the photo-absorption range and catalytic activity can be gradually improved. Whereas when the concentration exceeds 33.3%, the reduction potential of the conduction band edge will not meet the demand for hydrogen evolution. Therefore, excessive doping is not recommended in experiments. Our work affords not only a promising photocatalyst but also a practical design scheme by combining polarizing materials and the doping strategy for overall water splitting.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials including graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, black phosphorus, MXenes, and semimetals have attracted extensive and widespread interest over the past years for their many intriguing properties and phenomena, underlying physics, and great potential for applications. The vast library of 2D materials and their heterostructures provides a diverse range of electrical, photonic, mechanical, and chemical properties with boundless opportunities for photonics and plasmonic devices. The infrared (IR) regime, with wavelengths across 0.78 μm to 1000 μm, has particular technological significance in industrial, military, commercial, and medical settings while facing challenges especially in the limit of materials. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the varied approaches taken to leverage the properties of the 2D materials for IR applications in photodetection and sensing, light emission and modulation, surface plasmon and phonon polaritons, non-linear optics, and Smith-Purcell radiation, among others. The strategies examined include the growth and processing of 2D materials, the use of various 2D materials like semiconductors, semimetals, Weyl-semimetals and 2D heterostructures or mixed-dimensional hybrid structures, and the engineering of light-matter interactions through nanophotonics, metasurfaces, and 2D polaritons. Finally, we give an outlook on the challenges in realizing high-performance and ambient-stable devices and the prospects for future research and large-scale commercial applications.

Abstract
PdSe2 has a layered structure with an unusual, puckered Cairo pentagonal tiling. Its atomic bond configuration features planar 4-fold-coordinated Pd atoms and intralayer Se-Se bonds that enable polymorphic phases with distinct electronic and quantum properties, especially when atomically thin. PdSe2 is conventionally orthorhombic, and direct synthesis of its metastable polymorphic phases is still a challenge. Here, we report an ambient-pressure chemical vapor deposition approach to synthesize metastable monoclinic PdSe2. Monoclinic PdSe2 is shown to be synthesized selectively under Se-deficient conditions that induce Se vacancies. These defects are shown by first-principles density functional theory calculations to reduce the free energy of the metastable monoclinic phase, thereby stabilizing it during synthesis. The structure and composition of the monoclinic PdSe2 crystals are identified and characterized by scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging, convergent beam electron diffraction, and electron energy loss spectroscopy. Polarized Raman spectroscopy of the monoclinic PdSe2 flakes reveals their strong in-plane optical anisotropy. Electrical transport measurements show that the monoclinic PdSe2 exhibits n-type charge carrier conduction with electron mobilities up to ∼298 cm2 V-1 s-1 and a strong in-plane electron mobility anisotropy of ∼1.9. The defect-mediated growth pathway identified in this work is promising for phase-selective direct synthesis of other 2D transition metal dichalcogenides.

Abstract
The highly efficient photocatalytic water splitting process to produce clean energy requires novel semiconductor materials to achieve a high solar-to-hydrogen energy conversion efficiency. Herein, the photocatalytic properties of anisotropic β-PtX2 (X = S, Se) and Janus β-PtSSe monolayers were investigated based on the density functional theory. The small cleavage energy for β-PtS2 (0.44 J m-2) and β-PtSe2 (0.40 J m-2) endorses the possibility of mechanical exfoliation from their respective layered bulk materials. The calculated results revealed that the β-PtX2 monolayers have an appropriate bandgap (∼1.8-2.6 eV) enclosing the water redox potential, light absorption coefficient (∼104 cm-1), and exciton binding energy (∼0.5-0.7 eV), which facilitates excellent visible-light-driven photocatalytic performance. Remarkably, the inherent structural anisotropy leads to an anisotropic high carrier mobility (up to ∼5 × 103 cm2 V-1 S-1), leading to a fast transport of photogenerated carriers. Notably, the required small external potential to realize hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction processes with an excellent solar-to-hydrogen energy conversion efficiency for β-PtSe2 (∼16%) and β-PtSSe (∼18%) makes them promising candidates for solar water splitting applications.

Abstract
PtSe2 is one of the most promising materials for the next generation of piezoresistive sensors. However, the large-scale synthesis of homogeneous thin films with reproducible electromechanical properties is challenging due to polycrystallinity. It is shown that stacking phases other than the 1T phase become thermodynamically available at elevated temperatures that are common during synthesis. It is shown that these phases can make up a significant fraction in a polycrystalline thin film and discuss methods to characterize them, including their Seebeck coefficients. Lastly, their gauge factors, which vary strongly and heavily impact the performance of a nanoelectromechanical device are estimated.

Abstract
Monolayer PtSe2 holds great potential in extending 2D devices functionality, but their atomic-level-defect study is still limited. Here, we investigate the atomic structures of lattice imperfections from point to stretched 1D defects in 1T-PtSe2 monolayers, using annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (ADF-STEM). We show Se vacancies (VSe) have preferential sites with high beam-induced mobility. Diverse divacancies form with paired VSe. We found stretched linear defects triggered by dynamics of VSe that altered strain fields, distinct from the line vacancies in 2H-phase 2D materials. The paired VSe stability and formation possibility of vacancy lines are evaluated by density functional theory. Lower sputtering energy in PtSe2 than that in MoS2 can cause larger possibility of atomic loss compared to diffusion required for creating VSe lines. This provides atomic insights into the defects in 1T-PtSe2 and shows how a deviated 1D structure is embedded in a 2D system without losing atom lines.

Abstract
The evolutionary success in information technology has been sustained by the rapid growth of sensor technology. Recently, advances in sensor technology have promoted the ambitious requirement to build intelligent systems that can be controlled by external stimuli along with independent operation, adaptivity, and low energy expenditure. Among various sensing techniques, field-effect transistors (FETs) with channels made of two-dimensional (2D) materials attract increasing attention for advantages such as label-free detection, fast response, easy operation, and capability of integration. With atomic thickness, 2D materials restrict the carrier flow within the material surface and expose it directly to the external environment, leading to efficient signal acquisition and conversion. This review summarizes the latest advances of 2D-materials-based FET (2D FET) sensors in a comprehensive manner that contains the material, operating principles, fabrication technologies, proof-of-concept applications, and prototypes. First, a brief description of the background and fundamentals is provided. The subsequent contents summarize physical, chemical, and biological 2D FET sensors and their applications. Then, we highlight the challenges of their commercialization and discuss corresponding solution techniques. The following section presents a systematic survey of recent progress in developing commercial prototypes. Lastly, we summarize the long-standing efforts and prospective future development of 2D FET-based sensing systems toward commercialization.

Abstract
Bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) is an available thermoelectric material with the lowest band gap among bismuth chalcogenides, revealing a broad application in photocatalysis. Unfortunately, its size and morphology related to a radio-catalysis property have rarely been explored. Herein, an ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-assisted hydrothermal strategy was introduced to synthesize polytypic Bi2Te3 nanoplates (BT NPs) that exhibit size-dependent radio-sensitization and metabolism characteristics in vivo. By simply varying the molar ratio of EDTA/Bi3+ during the reaction, BT NPs with different sizes and morphologies were obtained. EDTA acting as chelating agent and "capping" agent contributed to the homogeneous growth of BT NPs by eliminating dangling bonds and reducing the surface energy of different facets. Further analyzing the size-dependent radio-sensitization mechanism, larger-sized BT NPs generated holes that preferentially catalyzed the conversion of OH- to ·OH when irradiated with X-rays, while the smaller-sized BT NPs exhibited faster decay kinetics producing higher 1O2 levels to enhance radiotherapy effects. A metabolomic analysis revealed that larger-sized BT NPs were oxidized into Bi(Ox) in the liver via a citrate cycle pathway, whereas smaller-sized BT NPs accumulated in the kidney and were excreted in urine in the form of ions by regulating the metabolism of glutamate. In a cervical cancer model, BT NPs combined with X-ray irradiation significantly antagonized tumor suppression through the promotion of apoptosis in tumor cells. Consequently, in addition to providing a prospect of BT NPs as an efficient radio-sensitizer to boost the tumor radiosensitivity, we put forth a strategy that can be universally applied in synthesizing metal chalcogenides for catalysis-promoted radiotherapy.

Abstract
Interlayer coupling between individual unit layers is known to be critical in manipulating the layer-dependent properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials. While recent studies have revealed that several 2D materials with significant degrees of interlayer interaction (such as black phosphorus) show strongly layer-dependent properties, the origin based on the electronic structure is drawing intensive attention along with 2D materials exploration. Here, the direct observation of a highly dispersive single electronic band along the interlayer direction in puckered 2D PdSe2 as an experimental hallmark of strong interlayer couplings is reported. Remarkably large band dispersion along the kz -direction near Fermi level, which is even wider than the in-plane one, is observed by the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurement. Employing X-ray absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations, it is revealed that the strong interlayer coupling in 2D PdSe2 originates from the unique directional bonding of Pd d orbitals associated with unexpected Pd 4d9 configuration, which consequently plays a decisive role for the strong layer-dependency of the band gap.

Abstract
The Seebeck effect refers to the production of an electric voltage when different temperatures are applied on a conductor, and the corresponding voltage-production efficiency is represented by the Seebeck coefficient. We report a Seebeck effect: thermal generation of driving voltage from the heat flowing in a thin PtSe2/PtSe2 van der Waals homostructure at the interface. We refer to the effect as the interface-induced Seebeck effect. By exploiting this effect by directly attaching multilayered PtSe2 over high-resistance PtSe2 thin films as a hybridized single structure, we obtained the highly challenging in-plane Seebeck coefficient of the PtSe2 films that exhibit extremely high resistances. This direct attachment further enhanced the in-plane thermal Seebeck coefficients of the PtSe2/PtSe2 van der Waals homostructure on sapphire substrates. Consequently, we successfully enhanced the in-plane Seebeck coefficients for the PtSe2 (10 nm)/PtSe2 (2 nm) homostructure approximately 42% compared to that of a pure PtSe2 (10 nm) layer at 300 K. These findings represent a significant achievement in understanding the interface-induced Seebeck effect and provide an effective strategy for promising large-area thermoelectric energy harvesting devices using two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide materials, which are ideal thermoelectric platforms with high figures of merit.

Abstract
1T-phase niobium telluride (NbTe2) nanosheets are becoming increasingly important in emerging fields, such as spintronics, sensors and magneto-optoelectronics, due to their excellent physical and chemical properties. However, exploration on their biomedical applications are limited. Herein, ultrathin 1T-phase NbTe2 single-crystalline nanosheets with excellent photothermal performance, high drug-loading rate, near-infrared (NIR) light/acidic pH-triggered drug release, and low toxicity were developed for potentiated photothermal therapy. Importantly, they showed excellent biocompatibility in vivo and in vitro. NbTe2 nanosheets loaded with integrated stress response inhibitors (ISRIB) could achieve chemo-photothermal therapy of tumors through the ATF4-ASNS signaling axis. Ultrathin 1T-phase NbTe2 single-crystalline nanosheets with unique photothermal properties, drug loading rate and safety provide dramatic possibilities in biomedical applications, such as tissue imaging, photothermal therapeutics and pharmaceutics.

Abstract
Room-temperature infrared photodetectors are in great demand because of their vitally important applications in the military and civilian fields, which has inspired intensive studies in recent decades. Here, we present the fabrication of a large-size PdSe2/CdTe mixed-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) heterojunction for room-temperature infrared detection. Taking advantage of the wide light absorption of the multilayer PdSe2, high-quality vdW interface, and unique mixed-dimensional device geometry, the present device is capable of detecting an ultrawide light up to long-wave infrared (LWIR) of 10.6 μm at room temperature. In addition, our photodetector exhibits a good capability to follow short pulse infrared signals with a quick response rate of 70 ns, a large responsivity of 324.7 mA/W, and a reasonable specific detectivity of 3.3 × 1012 Jones. Significantly, the assembled photodetector is highly sensitive to a polarized infrared light signal with a decent polarization sensitivity of 4.4. More importantly, an outstanding LWIR imaging capability based on the PdSe2/CdTe vdW heterojunction at nonrefrigeration condition is demonstrated. Our work paves a novel route for the design of highly polarization-sensitive, room-temperature infrared photodetectors.

A Universal Atomic Substitution Conversion Strategy Towards Synthesis of Large-Size Ultrathin Nonlayered Two-Dimensional Materials. NANO-MICRO LETTERS 2021; 13:165. [PMID: 34351515 PMCID: PMC8342677 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-021-00692-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2021] [Accepted: 06/24/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Nonlayered two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted increasing attention, due to novel physical properties, unique surface structure, and high compatibility with microfabrication technique. However, owing to the inherent strong covalent bonds, the direct synthesis of 2D planar structure from nonlayered materials, especially for the realization of large-size ultrathin 2D nonlayered materials, is still a huge challenge. Here, a general atomic substitution conversion strategy is proposed to synthesize large-size, ultrathin nonlayered 2D materials. Taking nonlayered CdS as a typical example, large-size ultrathin nonlayered CdS single-crystalline flakes are successfully achieved via a facile low-temperature chemical sulfurization method, where pre-grown layered CdI2 flakes are employed as the precursor via a simple hot plate assisted vertical vapor deposition method. The size and thickness of CdS flakes can be controlled by the CdI2 precursor. The growth mechanism is ascribed to the chemical substitution reaction from I to S atoms between CdI2 and CdS, which has been evidenced by experiments and theoretical calculations. The atomic substitution conversion strategy demonstrates that the existing 2D layered materials can serve as the precursor for difficult-to-synthesize nonlayered 2D materials, providing a bridge between layered and nonlayered materials, meanwhile realizing the fabrication of large-size ultrathin nonlayered 2D materials.

Abstract
1T-phase transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) nanomaterials are one type of emerging and promising near-infrared II (NIR-II) photothermal agents (PTAs) derived from their distinct metallic electronic structure, but it is still challenging to synthesize these nanomaterials. Herein, PdTe2 nanoparticles (PTNs) with a 1T crystal symmetry and around 50 nm in size are prepared by an electrochemical exfoliation method, and the corresponding photothermal performances irradiated under a NIR-II laser have been explored. The encapsulation of 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-poly(ethylene glycol) (DSPE-PEG) endows PTNs with water solubility, enhanced photothermal stability, and high biocompatibility. Notably, PTN/DSPE-PEG displays a potent absorbance through the NIR-II zone and considerable photothermal conversion efficiency, which is up to 68% when irradiated with a 1060 nm laser. With these unique photothermal properties, excellent in vitro and in vivo tumor inhibition effects of PTN/DSPE-PEG have been achieved under the irradiation of a NIR-II (1060 nm) laser without visible toxicity to normal tissues, suggesting that it is an efficient NIR-II photothermal nanoagent.

Abstract
The rapid development of two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides has been possible owing to their special structures and remarkable properties. In particular, palladium diselenide (PdSe2) with a novel pentagonal structure and unique physical characteristics have recently attracted extensive research interest. Consequently, tremendous research progress has been achieved regarding the physics, chemistry, and electronics of PdSe2. Accordingly, in this review, we recapitulate and summarize the most recent research on PdSe2, including its structure, properties, synthesis, and applications. First, a mechanical exfoliation method to obtain PdSe2 nanosheets is introduced, and large-area synthesis strategies are explained with respect to chemical vapor deposition and metal selenization. Next, the electronic and optoelectronic properties of PdSe2 and related heterostructures, such as field-effect transistors, photodetectors, sensors, and thermoelectric devices, are discussed. Subsequently, the integration of systems into infrared image sensors on the basis of PdSe2 van der Waals heterostructures is explored. Finally, future opportunities are highlighted to serve as a general guide for physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and engineers. Therefore, this comprehensive review may shed light on the research conducted by the 2D material community.

Abstract
One-dimensional (1D) electrospun nanomaterials have attracted significant attention due to their unique structures and outstanding chemical and physical properties such as large specific surface area, distinct electronic and mass transport, and mechanical flexibility. Over the past years, the integration of metal sulfides with electrospun nanomaterials has emerged as an exciting research topic owing to the synergistic effects between the two components, leading to novel and interesting properties in energy, optics and catalysis research fields for example. In this review, we focus on the recent development of the preparation of electrospun nanomaterials integrated with functional metal sulfides with distinct nanostructures. These functional materials have been prepared via two efficient strategies, namely direct electrospinning and post-synthesis modification of electrospun nanomaterials. In this review, we systematically present the chemical and physical properties of the electrospun nanomaterials integrated with metal sulfides and their application in electronic and optoelectronic devices, sensing, catalysis, energy conversion and storage, thermal shielding, adsorption and separation, and biomedical technology. Additionally, challenges and further research opportunities in the preparation and application of these novel functional materials are also discussed.

Abstract
Long-wave infrared (LWIR) photodetection is of high technological importance, having a wide range of applications that include thermal imaging and spectroscopy. Two-dimensional (2D) noble-transition-metal dichalcogenides, platinum diselenide (PtSe2) in particular, have recently shown great promise for infrared detection. However, previous studies have mainly focused on wavelengths up to the short-wave infrared region. In this work, we demonstrate LWIR photodetectors based on multilayer PtSe2. In addition, we present an optical cavity substrate that enhances the light-matter interaction in 2D materials and thus their photodetection performance in the LWIR spectral region. The PtSe2 photoconductors fabricated on the TiO2/Au optical cavity substrate exhibit responsivities up to 54 mA/W to LWIR illumination at a wavelength of 8.35 μm. Moreover, these devices show a fast photoresponse with a time constant of 54 ns to white light illumination. The findings of this study reveal the potential of multilayer PtSe2 for fast and broadband photodetection from visible to LWIR wavelengths.

Abstract
Platinum dichalcogenide (PtX2), an emergent group-10 transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) has shown great potential in infrared photonic and optoelectronic applications due to its layer-dependent electronic structure with potentially suitable bandgap. However, a scalable synthesis of PtSe2 and PtTe2 atomic layers with controlled thickness still represents a major challenge in this field because of the strong interlayer interactions. Herein, we develop a facile cathodic exfoliation approach for the synthesis of solution-processable high-quality PtSe2 and PtTe2 atomic layers for high-performance infrared (IR) photodetection. As-exfoliated PtSe2 and PtTe2 bilayer exhibit an excellent photoresponsivity of 72 and 1620 mA W-1 at zero gate voltage under a 1540 nm laser illumination, respectively, approximately several orders of magnitude higher than that of the majority of IR photodetectors based on graphene, TMDs, and black phosphorus. In addition, our PtSe2 and PtTe2 bilayer device also shows a decent specific detectivity of beyond 109 Jones with remarkable air-stability (>several months), outperforming the mechanically exfoliated counterparts under the laser illumination with a similar wavelength. Moreover, a high yield of PtSe2 and PtTe2 atomic layers dispersed in solution also allows for a facile fabrication of air-stable wafer-scale IR photodetector. This work demonstrates a new route for the synthesis of solution-processable layered materials with the narrow bandgap for the infrared optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
We employ a combination of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (STS) to investigate the properties of layered PtS2, synthesised via thermally assisted conversion (TAC) of a metallic Pt thin film. STM measurements reveal the 1T crystal structure of PtS2, and the lattice constant is determined to be 3.58 ± 0.03 Å. STS allowed the electronic structure of individual PtS2 crystallites to be directly probed and a bandgap of ∼1.03 eV was determined for a 3.8 nm thick flake at liquid nitrogen temperature. These findings substantially expand understanding of the atomic and electronic structure of PtS2 and indicate that STM is a powerful tool capable of locally probing non-uniform polycrystalline films, such as those produced by TAC. Prior to STM/STS measurements the quality of synthesised TAC PtS2 was analysed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Raman spectroscopy. These results are of relevance to applications-focussed studies centred on PtS2 and may inform future efforts to optimise the synthesis conditions for thin film PtS2. Semiconducting thin-film polycrystalline PtS2 is characterised by atomically resolved scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy.![]()

Abstract
High-level first-principles computations predict blue phosphorene bilayer to be a two-dimensional metal. This structure has not been considered before and was identified by employing a block-diagram scheme that yields the complete set of five high-symmetry stacking configurations of buckled honeycomb layers, and allows their unambiguous classification. We show that all of these stacking configurations are stable or at least metastable both for blue phosphorene and gray arsenene bilayers. For blue phosphorene, the most stable stacking arrangement has not yet been reported, and surprisingly it is metallic, while the others are indirect band gap semiconductors. As it is impossible to interchange the stacking configurations by translations, all of them should be experimentally accessible via the transfer of monolayers. The metallic character of blue phosphorene bilayer is caused by its short interlayer distance of 3.01 Å and offers the exceptional possibility to design single elemental all-phosphorus transistors.

Abstract
Noble-metal chalcogenides, dichalcogenides, and phosphochalcogenides are an emerging class of two-dimensional materials. Quantum confinement (number of layers) and defect engineering enables their properties to be tuned over a broad range, including metal-to-semiconductor transitions, magnetic ordering, and topological surface states. They possess various polytypes, often of similar formation energy, which can be accessed by selective synthesis approaches. They excel in mechanical, optical, and chemical sensing applications, and feature long-term air and moisture stability. In this Minireview, we summarize the recent progress in the field of noble-metal chalcogenides and phosphochalcogenides and highlight the structural complexity and its impact on applications.
