The invention belongs to the technical field of nano material preparation, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a few-atomic-layer ultrathin SnSe
nanosheet based on an intercalation compound precursor. The invention discloses a method for preparing a low-atomic-layer ultra-thin (lt; lt) material by taking
ethanolamine as an intercalator based on an intercalation-de-intercalation strategy. According to the method,
ethanol amine is used as an intercalator through a hydrothermal method, an
ethanol amine intercalated SnSe
hybrid precursor is firstly synthesized, then the ultrathin SnSe
nanosheet is obtained through deintercalation treatment, the thickness of the prepared
nanosheet can reach the atomic level (about 2-3 atomic
layers), and the method is simple in process, low in cost, high in product quality and suitable for industrial production. The problems that an existing process is complex, and product size and thickness are difficult to control are solved. In addition, the ultrathin SnSe nanosheet prepared by the method shows excellent application prospects in the fields of piezoelectric devices, photoelectric detection,
flexible electronics, energy conversion and the like.
