Abstract

In this study, we report the successful synthesis of few-layer parallel PtSe2 ribbons on an Au foil employing a surface melting strategy via the chemical vapor deposition growth method at 650 °C. The controlled formation of parallel ribbons was directed by the Au steps generated through antimony treatment. These ribbons exhibit an average length of exceeding 100 μm and a width of approximately 100 nm across a substantial area. Electrocatalysis measurements showcase the catalytic performance of PtSe2 ribbons grown on Au foil, which can be further augmented through subsequent oxidation treatment. This investigation introduces an effective growth method for few-layer ribbons at low temperatures and broadens the scope of employing the substrate-guided strategies for the synthesis of one-dimensional materials. Additionally, it underscores the potential of PtSe2 ribbons as an electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution.
