Fundamental Properties:
Platinum ditelluride (PtTe₂) is a layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) known for its semimetallic nature and exceptional electronic properties. Unlike other TMDs, PtTe₂ remains semimetallic down to the monolayer, with high electrical conductivity and strong spin-orbit coupling effects. It also exhibits excellent environmental stability, thermal robustness, and flexibility.
PtTe₂ has a unique combination of band structure and thickness-dependent physical properties, enabling applications in next-generation electronics and spintronic devices. Additionally, its high catalytic activity and robust mechanical properties make it ideal for energy storage and sensing applications.
Applications:
Electronics: PtTe₂ is used in field-effect transistors (FETs) and other electronic components due to its high carrier mobility and semimetallic behavior.
Spintronics: Strong spin-orbit coupling and topological properties make PtTe₂ a promising material for spintronic devices.
Optoelectronics: PtTe₂’s semimetallic properties and excellent optical absorption allow for applications in photodetectors and other optoelectronic devices.
Energy Applications: PtTe₂ serves as an effective catalyst for hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) and is used in batteries and supercapacitors.
Sensors: PtTe₂-based chemical and gas sensors offer high sensitivity, leveraging its excellent electronic properties.
